The Eversense® E3 CGM System does has Predictive Alerts. To utilize this feature, you will need to turn it on in the App.

Predictive Alerts let you know in advance that a high or low glucose event is likely to occur if current trends continue.

Predictive Alerts use the Low and High Glucose Alert levels to provide an “early” warning. When you have reached the early warning time, the smart transmitter vibrates, and the mobile app gives an audible alert as well as displays a message on the screen. You should immediately perform a finger stick blood glucose test before making a treatment decision.

To turn this feature ON, tap Menu > Settings > Glucose to display the GLUCOSE SETTINGS screen.

The Eversense® NOW App lets you join a maximum of 10 Eversense® Circles. If you are invited to join an 11th Circle you will receive an email asking you to remove yourself from an existing Circle before being added to a new one.

The process for inserting the long-term sensor under the skin creates minor tissue changes around the sensor that take some time to return to normal. Twice daily calibrations help support the best possible CGM accuracy during this time.

The Eversense® E3 Sensor is a miniaturized fluorometer that uses fluorescent intensity to measure glucose in interstitial fluid. The sensor is implanted subcutaneously (under the skin) on the upper arm, leaving no part of the sensor protruding from the skin. The sensor remains in place and provides
CGM measurements for the operating life of the sensor for up to 180 days.
The sensor is encased in a biocompatible material and utilizes a unique fluorescent, glucose indicating polymer. A light emitting diode embedded in the sensor excites the polymer, and the polymer then rapidly signals changes in glucose concentration via a change in light output. The measurement is then relayed to the smart transmitter. Measurements are completed automatically and require no action by the user.
The sensor is approximately 3.5 mm x 18.3 mm and has a silicone ring that contains a small amount of dexamethasone acetate, an anti-inflammatory steroid drug. The dexamethasone acetate minimizes inflammatory responses, very similar to common medical devices, such as pacemakers.

The Eversense E3 Sensor includes the sacrificial boronic acid (SBA) design modification.

There may be times when you wish to temporarily stop sharing data with a member, but not remove them from your Circle.

IMPORTANT: If you have disabled the Share My Data feature for a member, that member will not see any of your Eversense® CGM System glucose data, alerts or event history. Members will see your status as Offline on their Eversense® NOW App when you have disabled the Share my Data feature. It can take up to 10 minutes for the change to display on the Eversense® NOW user’s app.

Your Eversense® E3 CGM System will alert you when your glucose levels are outside the alert settings you choose. When you have reached your low and high glucose alert levels, the smart transmitter vibrates, and the mobile app gives an audible alert as well as displays a message on the screen. You should immediately perform a finger stick blood glucose test before making a treatment decision.

The Eversense® E3 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System is indicated for continually measuring glucose levels for up to 180 days in persons with diabetes age 18 and older. The system is indicated for use to replace fingerstick blood glucose (BG) measurements for diabetes treatment decisions. Fingerstick BG measurements are still required for calibration primarily one time a day after day 21, and when symptoms do not match CGM information or when taking medications of the tetracycline class. The sensor insertion and removal procedures are performed by a health care provider. The Eversense E3 CGM System is a prescription device; patients should talk to their health care provider to learn more.

The Eversense® 365 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System is indicated for continually measuring glucose levels for up to one year in people (18 years and older) with diabetes. The system is indicated for use to replace fingerstick blood glucose (BG) measurements for diabetes treatment decisions. Fingerstick BG measurements are required for calibration one time a week after day 13, and when symptoms do not match CGM information or when taking medications of the tetracycline class. The sensor insertion and removal procedures are performed by a health care provider. The Eversense 365 CGM System is a prescription device; patients should talk to their health care provider to learn more.
