User Safety

Warnings
Read this entire user guide prior to sensor insertion. The serter does not work the same way as other Medtronic
insertion devices. Failure to follow directions may result in improper insertion, pain, or injury.
For additional warnings related to sensor use, see the sensor user guide.
Keep the serter out of reach of children. The serter contains small parts and may pose a choking hazard that can
result in serious injury or death.
Do not make therapy decisions based on sensor glucose values. Sensor glucose and blood glucose values may
differ. If a sensor glucose reading is low or high, or symptoms of low or high blood glucose appear, use a BG
meter to confirm blood glucose prior to making therapy decisions. Failure to check blood glucose levels with a
BG meter prior to making therapy decisions can result in the infusion of too much or too little insulin, which can
cause hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.
Healthcare professionals and caregivers:
• A retractable needle is attached to the sensor. Minimal bleeding may occur. Always wear gloves to insert
the sensor
• Cover the sensor with sterile gauze to remove the needle housing from the sensor
Place the needle housing directly into a sharps container after sensor insertion to prevent accidental needle stick
injury.
Always inspect the sensor packaging for damage before use. Sensors are sterile and non-pyrogenic unless the
package has been opened or damaged. If the sensor packaging is open or damaged, discard the sensor directly
into a medical waste container. Use of a non-sterile sensor can result in infection at the insertion site.
