Medtronic plc, the global leader in medical technology, announced it will present new data on its MiniMed™ 780G system at the upcoming European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) 60th Annual Meeting in Madrid on September 9-13. The new clinical evidence on the MiniMed™ 780G system will include areas where the company intends to work with global regulators towards expanding access to its diabetes technology including a lower age for those with type 1 diabetes, and type 2 diabetes.

Today the MiniMed 780G™ system is approved for use in individuals aged 7 years and above with type 1 diabetes. Maintaining stable blood glucose levels is critical for the physical and cognitive development of very young children. By automating insulin delivery, the burden of diabetes on family life, especially during the night, can also be improved.

For women with type 1 diabetes, the challenges to achieving the necessary level of glycemic control in pregnancy to avoid risks to both the mother and the baby extend to delivery and the post-partum period. Pregnant women with type 1 diabetes are advised to aim for tighter control of their glucose levels, typically targeting a range of 63-140 mg/dL (3.5-7.8 mmol/L)^1-3, to minimize the risk of high blood sugar levels, which can have adverse effects on the baby's development.

Data will also highlight the ability of the system to reduce burden at mealtimes for people living with diabetes and more real-world evidence demonstrating the ability of the MiniMed 780G™ system to help users achieve their glycemic goals.
