The AiDEX CGM glucose monitor helps you make lifestyle changes that positively affect your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is a normal glucose level important to us?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Glucose is the main source of energy for our body, but fluctuations in its level in the blood can cause various health problems, ranging from fatigue and concentration difficulties to weight gain, type II diabetes, dementia, and heart disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) is a tool that helps monitor blood sugar levels in real-time, thereby supporting informed decisions regarding diet, exercise, and lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n

What is CGM and how does it work?<\/h2>
\n\n

A CGM glucose monitor is a biosensor that provides you with real-time data about your blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The continuous glucose monitoring system (CGM) consists of a sensor, transmitter, and data receiver (PDA or mobile app).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During CGM installation, a small sensor enters under the skin through the applicator and is attached to the outer skin with a patch. A transmitter is placed on the applicator plate that remains on the skin, which is connected to either the PDA or the mobile app. The transmitter begins to transmit the glucose readings measured by the sensor to the data receiver every 5 minutes around the clock. This allows the wearer to see their glucose curve continuously and draw conclusions about the impact of various factors on their blood sugar level and health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compared to traditional blood sugar measurement methods, CGM makes it possible to detect high and low glucose levels on the glucose curve that traditional methods often fail to identify. This is especially true for postprandial hyperglycemia and nocturnal asymptomatic hypoglycemia.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>

Advantages of AiDEX CGM:<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Painless installation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Thin external casing, making it unnoticeable to others when worn<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Waterproof (up to 1m depth while swimming, for a maximum of 30 minutes)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Overview of the impact of consumed food and daily activities on glucose levels. This allows making changes in daily life to ensure a healthier lifestyle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Seeing glucose trends. The chart shows how quickly and frequently your glucose level rises and falls. The chart data can also be downloaded to share with your doctor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Reduced risk of dangerous glucose fluctuations. Alerts notify you about hypo- and hyperglycemia situations and risks, allowing timely response and prevention of life-threatening situations. You can set your own glucose threshold values for alerts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Reports help you make the necessary changes and choices to keep glucose within the desired target range.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Helps reduce HbA1C levels. Detailed data can be intuitively used to lower A1c levels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • AGP report complies with ADA guidelines<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    What should you know when using CGM for the first time?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    CGM installation process<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Before starting the installation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Choose a suitable area for installation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • It is recommended to install the device on the abdomen at least 5 cm away from the navel or on the back of the upper arm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The installation area should have more fatty tissue. Do not install the sensor into muscle tissue!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The installation area should have more fatty tissue. Do not install the sensor into muscle tissue!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      If the abdomen is chosen for installation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • push the abdomen out and press the applicator firmly against it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Avoid pulling in the stomach or bending forward during installation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Make sure the wider side of the applicator is parallel to the waistline when installing on the abdomen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        If the arm is chosen for installation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Ensure you insert the sensor into fatty tissue at the back of the upper arm. Avoid muscles on the outer side of the arm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Assistance from another person may be required for installation on the arm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Installation:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          1. Before installing the sensor, download and open the AiDEX mobile app. Create an account or log in.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Choose a suitable area for sensor installation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Clean the chosen area with an alcohol wipe. Wait about a minute until the skin is completely dry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          4. Open the sterile sensor package and remove the sensor by turning the applicator counterclockwise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          5. Press the sensor firmly against the skin and press the button on the side of the applicator to insert the sensor under the skin. Keep pressing the applicator for 3 more seconds after insertion so the patch adheres to the skin. Remove the applicator and smooth the patch with your finger to avoid wrinkles and ensure adhesion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          6. Place the transmitter onto the sensor plate and press it firmly against the sensor. Make sure the transmitter is properly and securely attached to the sensor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          7. Open the mobile app or PDA receiver and follow the instructions on the screen. Connect the transmitter serial number to the app or PDA. After the sensor warm-up period ends, check your glucose readings on the screen.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
