About Dexcom G7 Receiver (glucose monitor)

Uses of Dexcom G7 Receiver (glucose monitor)

The Dexcom G7 Receiver (glucose monitor) is indicated for real-time glucose monitoring in people with diabetes aged 2 years and older. It replaces fingerstick blood glucose tests for diabetes treatment decisions.

The Dexcom G7 Receiver shows glucose levels and trends continuously, helping users track how glucose changes over time. It supports the detection of high (hyperglycemia) and low (hypoglycemia) glucose levels, allowing for timely treatment adjustments.

The system helps improve both short-term and long-term diabetes management. It can work on its own or connect with other compatible digital devices, such as automated insulin dosing (AID) systems, to support more advanced glucose control.

Ingredients (Components) in Dexcom G7 Receiver (glucose monitor)

Since this is a medical device, not a drug, the terms “active” and “inactive ingredients” aren’t appropriate. The Dexcom G7 System includes a streamlined, all-in-one sensor with a built-in, disposable transmitter. The sensor is smaller than the G6 and uses a shorter sensor wire. Each sensor comes with an overpatch to help it stay in place. The system also includes a compact sensor applicator, a redesigned mobile phone app, and an optional receiver. In some regions, the receiver may not be required. The app supports optional direct connection to a smartwatch.

How to Use Dexcom G7 Receiver (glucose monitor)?

Follow your doctor’s prescription exactly.

Before using the Dexcom G7 Sensor, wash your hands with soap and water. Choose a clean, flat spot on the back of your upper arm. Avoid areas with scarring, tattoos, or irritation.

Open the sensor applicator. Press and hold it firmly against your skin until it clicks. The sensor automatically inserts and starts warming up. The applicator can then be thrown away.

After insertion, the sensor warms up for 30 minutes before showing your glucose readings. During this time, do not expect glucose alerts or trends.

You do not need to manually start the sensor or scan it. It starts automatically once inserted.

Do not reuse the sensor or move it to another area. Each sensor is for single use and lasts up to 10 days, plus a 12-hour grace period.

Who Should Not Use the Dexcom G7 Receiver (glucose monitor)?

Do not wear any part of the Dexcom G7 Receiver (glucose monitor) during an MRI or diathermy treatment.

MRI and diathermy use strong magnetic fields or high-frequency heat. These may damage the device and cause incorrect readings or loss of alerts. Without alerts, you could miss dangerously high or low blood sugar levels.

You may have a CT scan while wearing the Dexcom G7, but take precautions. Keep the sensor out of the scanned area and cover it with a lead apron during the scan.

The Dexcom G7 has not been tested for use during MRI, diathermy, or in CT scan areas. Always follow safety instructions to avoid false readings or device failure.
