    Glad to see that Medtronic is going in the right direction with their CGM's. I was a Medtronic user for over 20 yrs, and their Guardian CGM's were just to problematic with constant 'Sensor updating' errors. I was using the Medtronic 770G in manual mode with Dexcom (that sensor works flawlessly). Because of my active lifestyle, I was experiencing too many lows where my Endo told me I HAD to go on an automated system, so I am now with Tandem as it can work with the Dexcom Sensors in automation. Hoping to one day go back to Medtronic, but we will have to see where technology takes us. If Medtronic would have made their pumps work with the Dexcom Sensor, I would still be with them, hands down!

    36 years from istanbul , was diagnosed 2 months ago . I still can't believe I'm watching this stuff , pump , cgm , this and that I was a healthy fit guy trying to achieve the highest and now all my youtube is diabetes.
    Anyways from my understanding the best pump out there is medtronic which can give you average 100 . My doctor suggested me to avoid pumps for the first year but man I love to wake up in the morning eat something and not looking at my blood suger 150 times.
    I hope and wish the further could be better with all these technologies.
    Good luck to everyone
    Good speed

    I hate lot of things about 780G, especially notifications. Why can't I confirm the notifications from my phone or smartwatch? (for obvious security reasons, I get it, why I can't bolus from them).
    If I type in my blood sugar with a low value, I don't want to be notified in a minute about it (when I already put it in my pocket, so I have to get it back in my hands), as I am aware of it, it is just stupid. There are lot of other scenario, which is awkward too.

      You can thank hackers for that. Animas closed up shop when it was discovered that the Animas Ping could be hacked to deliver insulin without the owner knowing. Due to this most pump companies have now quit making it possible to give a bolus without using the pump to do it. That is what I miss about the Ping I could check my BG then use the BG meter to give the bolus that was needed.

    • @zoltanzahony2520
      @zoltanzahony2520 Před 4 měsíci +1

      IMHO, this is a result of lazy IT programmers… WHY, to fix these alerts to specific BG values, disregarding the direction of change in the BG? E.g. BG is increasing, reaches the alert level - gives the signal. Later, when the situation is resolved, so the BG going down (right direction) reaching the same alert value (but this time, reverse direction) the same alert is delivered by the pump - it is extremely annoying! The coding task is super easy to solve - though I’m not an IT expert…. All in all, there’s a LOT to improve with Medtronics gadgets…

    Why does it feel like Medtronic is behind others? I get they are working on the CGM size, but a 2 hr warm up still? Libre 3 60 mins and 14 day wear as a stand alone. I use that instead of the CGM3. The 3 or 4 is way to bulky, have to calibrate and while I like the fact the CGM3 works with my pump...it's really no different than using a stand alone. Libre 3 no sticks or 12 hr calibrations and it's pretty spot on if I check my BG with a stick. I am frustrated with Medtronic TBH. So much taping and it's time they actually get ahead of the game instead of playing catch up. IMHO

    Hi Justin. I just ran across your channel yesterday Aug.13. I’ve been a type 1 for 66 years, believe it or not, and have seen changes through the years. I’ve used Medtronic products now for several years. Their pumps have always been great(a 630 G now) and very reliable but their sensors have not. I used them and had to pay out of pocket as they weren’t covered by insurance. The cost and inefficiency made me switch to Dexcom sensors when suggested by a member of my endocrinology team. It made things so much better because insurance approved and highly more accurate. Only negative is entering my BG readings into the pump. Now looking at changes again with the 780G. It would be nice to have a closed loop system but they need to step up with their CGM efficiency and get the FDA approval quickly.

It will be great if Medtronic's can get approved and intergrade a CGM like the one shown in this video. I especially like the idea of an insulin pump with no tubing.

    I was a medtronic user for almost 10 years and just got fed up with all the issues and the hassle from customer service when there was an issue. Not to mention they seem to be a few steps behind other on the market at any given time. Compeition is always good, it drives other companies to performer and do better, but it seems like Medtronic is playing catch up to Dexcom, Omnipod, and others.

    What I have learned so far about two insulin pumps -- the Beta Bionics iLet insulin pump, and the Medtronic 780G pump which I like better. I have been TYPE 1 diabetic for 43 years since 1980. I like to keep things as simple as possible -- never wanted an insulin pump, but I have been having too many LOWs lately, and newer insulin pumps are finally getting sophisticated enough, and easy to use, to where I need one. At first I wanted a Beta Bionics iLet insulin pump -- because it does everything for you. BUT, I learned that it only reduces your Ha1c to the recommended American Diabetes Assoc guideline goal of HA1c of about 7.0 (which is an average blood sugar of 154!) No, that's not good enough. By contrast, the new Medtronic 780G can take your average blood sugar SAFELY down to 100 which is a Ha1c of 5.1 (which is what a NON-diabetic's average blood sugar can be), and it achieves that WITHOUT giving you any significant low blood sugar episodes (according to various youtube videos I have watched). So a Medtronic 780G is what I want.

    I have been a type 1 for 15 years or so, and man has it come a loooong way since the barbaric shots. I'm on the 780g w/ G4 sensor, and it's a game changer ... It's incredible. Better interface, so less button smashing, one fingerstick a day, and rarely have any spikes over 250... I love this thing. Also, I don't understand how everyone is having so many problems with accuracy. My G4 so far has been much more accurate than the G3, without question.

Just a task and they're free and then you can put your your insulin pumps and your needles and stuff in there too. You can also put your your testing strips and stuff in there too so I hope you get one because they come in really handy and once they are full you can close the lid, take it back to your pharmacy and they'll give you a new one. It's just as easy and you don't have to throw away your your pods or anything like that. I hope that helps

    I just found your videos. I love what I’ve seem so far; keep up the good work! The FDA approval process for the 780G was so protracted (especially since the EU had it approved a couple of years before the U.S.) that, if the end of my pump warranty wasn’t until 2025, I would have switched pumps. I know COVID played a part, but they had the application before COVID and there must have been some work being done on the 780G during that time. What do you think about have a discussion with a FDA representative where you could ask the important questions many of us have about their approval process and how they work with the European CE Mark. The Europeans seem to have a more streamlined approval process and, to my knowledge, there are no reports on major issues with devices they’ve approved long before the FDA did.

They gotta fix their constant RECALL state of operations. And for Heavens sake reduce the ALARMS the user gets. Example- alarm for high Bg. Where is the LOGIC in having the HIGH alert notify you at the same point when it's on the down trend? The same thing goes for the HYPO alert.

      The thing they seem to be ignoring when they or any company suggests bolusing based on arm movements is the matter of timing. I have to pre-bolus even with the fastest liquid insulins, Fiasp and Lyumjev.
      By the time I’m lifting my arm to take a bite, it’s too late to efficiently cover those carbs with insulin. The only exception is Afrezza inhalable insulin which can work either away.
      Add to that the times when my blood sugar is high to begin with, there’s no way any liquid insulin will correct and cover food instantly.
      Pre-bolus is essential.

    What about Lipohypertrophy with their 7 day pumps? My diabetes specialist says there’s a high risk of that using something delivering insulin in the same spot for seven days.

    It’s frustrating to hear the next generation of Medtronic cgms will still have a two hour warm up period. But if they really do let you start a new sensor while still wear a previous one that would solve that issue.

    Presently I have a 780G/guardian 4 sensor. A tubeless pump from MEDTRONIC sounds exciting. My only concern is how it will be billed through my insurance.
    As a durable medical supply or through the pharmacy prescription plan That’s the clincher for me.

      When I got my first pump 7 years ago I was totally turned off of medtronic because of the size and lack of improvements compared to other companies. I’ve had a tandem t:slim g4 platinum and a tandem t:slim x2 and the x2 has been so much easier for me than injections or the g4. I do wish that the g7 dexcom would be integrated by now and that my pump battery wasn’t so inconsistent, but I’m also 6 months from being out of warranty. I’d love to get the t:slim x3 when it comes out, but I’m also nervous that it won’t be out by the time that I’m ready to upgrade

    I see that we are coming closer to getting system that is automatic where we don't have to worry about bolusing. But is there a possibility that we can get a pump that will work exactly like the pancreas by not only administering insulin, but administer glucogen to up blood sugar when sugar may not be readily available for a limited period of time.

    Hi, thx for this video. You asked how, as a Medtronic 780G pump, I feel about it... Well, I've been using it since november 2022. I had a hard time with the new Guardian 4 sensor at the beginning even though I've been using the Guardian 3 for a while. I hate the Guardian, too big, too long to start, too much tape around it. But the 780G is really good and take so much diabetes decisions on her own that I can sleep much better and live better as well. So, great pump, good CGM, but can't stop thinking about the other CGM (the smaller one, the more accurate one, the longer wear time, the shorter starting time) and be sad about it.

    • @robbos2432
      @robbos2432 Před rokem +5

      Totally agree. Medtronic hasn't changed the style of their sensor since at least 2009 when I first started using the pump. Ironically I was resistant to getting a pump for a long time until I heard about sensor technology and I thought real time readings were pretty cool. Turns out I loved the pump but hated the sensors right from day one. Too big, bulky, don't stick (need to tape them down WTF?), expensive, don't last long, not accurate, need recharging etc etc. Only incremental improvements have been made to them in the last 15 years. Medtronic should get completely out of the sensor business and partner with Dexcom or Abbott to make sensors compatible with their pump. It would be a win for their reputation and a win for Medtronic pump users!

      @@robbos2432 They won't due to $$$$ they would lose. I like the FreeStyle Libre 3 system the sensor is small and last 14 days and has the lowest MARD of any sensor available now. It would be nice if they would allow users to choose what sensor they want to use with their insulin pump.

  • @chrisheidt3542

    I simply cant understand Medtronic thinking with the delays in CGM design & length of wear & warm up, when Dexcom & Libre have been pushing 10 & 14 day wear and 1 hr or less warm ups for years. Already the Simplera & Instinct are outdated by being bigger & last 1/2 as long as the competition. That means more insertions and more costs for users, why would we use it? I tried the 1st rendition of the Guardian after using the Libre for a few months. The Guardian went back after just 2 sensors, it was terrible compared to the Libre in so many ways. I love my Medtronic pump(s) and would love to run their closed loop system, but Medtronic is still lagging so far behind the competition when it comes to CGM technology.

    I don’t really think this future simplera will do a miracle. Medtronic should improve the pump itself, instead create another sensor. Maybe invest in no tubing and also, system integrated directly to mobile. The pump bottoms are so annoying. I can not wait for my new pump be approved. The only cons at the moment with the pump I want is the fact I had to buy android phone, but I’m happy to buy, I’m 100% sure I will be happier with other pump rather than Medtronic

      Why would they get rid of their money maker over 60 Billion is spent on diabetes each year. If they found a cure do you really think that they would place it on the market and kill off their money maker. I remember in the early 90's they had cured 3 people of diabetes by using the cells from dead people sorry I can not remember the medical term for dead bodies. They said at that time that there was not enough dead bodies to cure everyone. But with us now being able to grow cells in a lab how come they have not started offering this cure that was found. I know that a big part of it was finding someone who was a match to the person so that their body would not attack the cells once they were placed. Of the 7 people that this was done on 3 were cured the others only got 1 to 7 years of being non diabetic before their diabetes returned.
