Once given FDA approval, the Senseonics Eversence System will be the fourth CGMS available in the U.S. It was submitted to the FDA for premarket approval last October, supported by data from a 90-patient pivotal trial of the device. The trial followed adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes over 90 days of CGM sensor wearing. This is an implantable CGM system that is currently approved in Europe. The sensor sits just under your skin and can stay there for anywhere from 90-180 days.

CGM will be available at lower price, without fingerstick calibration, and can be worn for 10 days with 12-hour warmup.

Sensor-augmented therapy can diminish hypoglycemia with the low-glucose suspend feature.

First Continuous Glucose Monitor that doesn’t require routine finger pricks.
