NEW PRODUCT: t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Dexcom G7 CGM Compatibility
Tandem Diabetes Care has released updated t:slim X2 insulin pump software that works with Dexcom G7 and Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems.
“This integration marks the first time an AID system in Canada is compatible with both Dexcom G7 and Dexcom G6 CGMs, demonstrating our commitment to continued leadership in advancing AID systems and offering choice,” Mark Novara, executive vice president and chief commercial officer of Tandem Diabetes Care, said in a press release.
The company expects the new product to be available in the fall. New t:slim X2 customers will receive the uploaded software automatically, and older users will get a free remote software update and be able to choose Dexcom G7 and Dexcom G6.
“Studies have shown that an AID system powered by Dexcom CGM allows people with diabetes to experience more time in range and can help users reduce nighttime lows,” André Côté, executive vice president and general manager of Dexcom Canada, said in a press release. “Sensor accuracy is key to automated insulin delivery, and we are thrilled that Canadians using the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ technology will soon be able to benefit from integration with Dexcom G7, our smallest and most accurate CGM.”
