Medtronic will present the latest data on its MiniMed™ 780G insulin pump and showcase the company’s latest CareLink™ experience launching globally this month
Medtronic, a global leader in medical technology, today announced an overview of its upcoming presence at the American Diabetes Association's (ADA) 84th Scientific Sessions. Following the one-year anniversary of the MiniMed™ 780G system approval and launch in the U.S., Medtronic Diabetes continues to demonstrate its success with consistently strong real-world evidence – particularly around its unique ability to manage hyperglycemia across diverse populations of individuals with type 1 diabetes. Hyperglycemia continues to be an unmet need and Medtronic Diabetes is committed to ensuring tight management to prevent the devastating short- and long-term complications associated with prolonged highs. The growing body of evidence not only demonstrates strong clinical outcomes, but reduced burden for people living with diabetes, and overall satisfaction in the experience it’s delivering.
In addition to its latest data, the company will also showcase an enhanced CareLink™ experience for healthcare professionals — the first of many steps towards revolutionizing the Medtronic digital ecosystem for both patients and HCPs. Launching globally in early June, the new CareLink™ experience features a new patient dashboard and a quick view of the metric that matters most: Time in Range. A new dedicated Time in Range column will provide a snapshot of how all of the patients in their care are doing so they can quickly identify those in need of extra support. The updated CareLink™ system will be on display throughout the congress at the Medtronic Diabetes booth and demonstrated via an in-booth presentation.
The Medtronic booth will also showcase its CE-marked Simplera Sync™ sensor with the MiniMed™ 780G system, which will begin its phased commercial launch in Europe in late July. (CAUTION: Investigational, not approved for commercial use in the US). The Simplera Sync™ is a disposable, all-in-one continuous glucose monitor (CGM) requiring no fingersticks or overtape. Simplera Sync™ features an improved user experience with a simple, two-step insertion process and is half the size of previous Medtronic sensors with the MiniMed™ 780G system, Medtronic's most advanced insulin delivery system. It was unveiled earlier this year via a limited release in preparation for commercial availability in Europe.
