Eversense System Overview
A separate blood glucose monitoring system (not provided by Senseonics) is required for calibrating the CGM System, 
and to make treatment decisions. When used properly, these components work together to help ensure you get 
continuous glucose monitoring for up to 90 days.
To ensure you receive continuous glucose readings and other information, follow these daily use tips:
  Wear your smart transmitter all the time except when charging.
  The smart transmitter is water-resistant to a depth of 1 meter (3.2 feet) for 30 minutes. Exposing the smart 
transmitter to conditions beyond this will result in damage and void your warranty.
 Make sure your smart transmitter has enough battery power at all times.
 Perform two blood glucose meter calibration tests each day when prompted.
 Pay attention to alerts and notifications you receive from your smart transmitter and mobile device.
  Replace the adhesive patch on your smart transmitter daily.
 You can remove the smart transmitter from the upper arm at any time, except during calibration. Remember that 
no data are collected when the smart transmitter is not communicating with the sensor. When you place the smart 
transmitter back on the sensor site, it will take 10 minutes for sensor communication to re-start and for glucose 
readings to appear in the app.
  When the smart transmitter and mobile device are not within range of each other, any data gathered by the smart 
transmitter is stored and sent to the app when the mobile device and smart transmitter are back within range.
 It is safe for you to wear your sensor and smart transmitter when you go through metal detectors at airports. While 
flying, the smart transmitter performs similar to any other Bluetooth device. Be sure to follow the specific safety 
guidelines mandated by the airline.

2. Benets and Risks
This section describes the benets, expectations and risks associated with using the Eversense 
CGM System.
Continuous glucose monitoring aids in the management of diabetes and glucose control, which can improve your 
quality of life. Best results are achieved when you are fully informed about the risks and benefits, insertion procedure, 
follow-up requirements, and self-care responsibilities. You should not have the sensor inserted if you cannot properly 
operate the CGM System.
The CGM System measures glucose in interstitial fluid (ISF) between the body’s cells. Physiologic dierences between 
ISF and blood from a fingerstick may result in dierences in glucose measurements. These dierences are especially 
evident during times of rapid change in blood glucose (e.g., after eating, dosing insulin, or exercising). Glucose levels 
in ISF lag behind glucose levels in blood by several minutes.
The sensor has a silicone ring that contains a small amount of an anti-inflammatory drug (dexamethasone acetate). 
It has not been determined whether the risks associated with injectable dexamethasone acetate apply to the 
dexamethasone acetate elution ring inside the sensor. The elution ring releases a small amount of dexamethasone 
acetate when the sensor comes in contact with body fluids and serves to minimize the body’s inflammatory response 
to the inserted sensor. Dexamethasone acetate in the ring may also cause other adverse events not previously seen 
with the injectable form. For a listing of potentially adverse eects related to dexamethasone acetate, contact your 
physician.
Unauthorized modifications of the equipment, improperly accessing information within it or “jailbreaking” your 
system, and taking any other unauthorized actions may cause the CGM system to malfunction and may put you at 
risk. Unauthorized modification of the equipment is not permitted and voids your warranty.

Risks and Side Eects
The glucose alerts and notifications will not audibly notify the user when the sound on your mobile device is turned 
o. If the system cannot display a glucose value, it also cannot provide glucose alerts. If you are unable to feel the 
vibration of the smart transmitter you may not notice the alerts. The system’s calculated glucose can be slightly 
dierent from your blood glucose meter. This may cause an alert to activate at a dierent time than it would have if 
the system’s values always matched the blood glucose meter values.
If you do not take frequent blood glucose measurements and miss an alert, you may not be aware of high or low 
glucose levels. You may need medical attention in the event that you have high or low glucose and are unaware of it.
If you do not test your glucose with a blood glucose meter when you have symptoms of a low or high blood glucose 
level OR when your symptoms are not consistent with the sensor glucose readings, you may miss a high or low 
glucose event. Treatment decisions made without confirming with a blood glucose meter check may result in a high 
or low glucose event, since blood glucose values can be slightly dierent than your sensor glucose values measured in 
interstitial fluid. 
The sensor is inserted by making a small incision and placing it under the skin. This process may cause infection, pain 
or skin irritation. Additionally, the adhesive may cause a reaction or skin irritation.
Warnings
•   If at any time you have symptoms of a low or high blood glucose level OR if your symptoms are not consistent 
with the sensor glucose readings, you should test your glucose with a blood glucose meter.
•   Always test your glucose with your blood glucose meter before making a treatment decision.
•   If your smart transmitter is damaged or cracked, DO NOT use, as this could create an electrical safety hazard 
or malfunction, and could result in electrical shock.
•   Close contact with direct EMI may interfere with the smart transmitter’s ability to send data to your mobile 
device. Move away from the source of EMI and check that your mobile device is connected to your smart 
transmitter.

Warnings (continued)
•   High doses of aspirin (over 2000 mg), such as for chronic treatment of inflammatory conditions  
(e.g., rheumatoid arthritis), may falsely lower Sensor glucose readings.
•   Until it has healed, always cover the insertion site with a sterile bandage before placing the smart transmitter 
adhesive over the sensor. Failure to do so could result in infection at the insertion site.
•   Please review this User Guide with your health care provider. For additional Eversense product questions 
and troubleshooting issues, contact Customer Support toll free in the US at 844-SENSE4U (844-736-7348). 
Outside the US, call your local distributor or visit www.eversensediabetes.com to locate your local distributor.
•  Always calibrate the system using only a fingerstick blood sample. DO NOT use an alternative site (such as 
forearm or palm) blood glucose reading to calibrate the system.
•   DO NOT insert your infusion set within 10.16 cm (4 in) of the sensor site. If the insulin delivery site is within 
10.16 cm (4 in) of the sensor site, it may interfere with sensor glucose readings and can cause inaccurate 
glucose readings.
Always follow your physician’s instructions for care after the sensor insertion or removal. Contact your physician 
if any of the following events occur:
•   You have pain, redness, or swelling at the incision site(s) later than 5 days after the sensor insertion or 
removal.

Cautions
•   DO NOT exchange smart transmitters with another person. Each smart transmitter can be linked to only one 
sensor at a time.
•   The following medical therapies or procedures may cause permanent damage to the sensor particularly if 
used in close proximity to the device:
–  Lithotripsy – The use of lithotripsy is not recommended for people who have an inserted sensor because 
the eects are unknown.
–  Diathermy – DO NOT use diathermy on people who have an inserted sensor. Energy from the diathermy can 
transfer through the sensor and cause tissue damage in the insertion area.
–  Electrocautery – The use of electrocautery near the inserted sensor may damage the device. DO NOT use 
electrocautery near the sensor.
•   DO NOT wear the smart transmitter during medical x-rays or computed tomography (CT) scans. To avoid 
interference with results, remove the smart transmitter before undergoing medical x-ray or CT scans. Make 
sure your physician knows about your smart transmitter.
•   The sensor and smart transmitter should be linked the day of insertion. Failure to link the sensor and smart 
transmitter could result in a delay in receiving glucose readings.
•   Steroid use – It has not been determined whether the risks usually associated with injectable dexamethasone 
acetate apply to the use of this dexamethasone acetate elution ring, a highly localized, controlled-release 
device. The dexamethasone acetate ring could cause other adverse events not listed or previously seen.
•   If the sensor or smart transmitter feels warm, remove the smart transmitter immediately and contact your 
physician for further advice. A warm sensor could mean there is an infection or a sensor malfunction. 
•   Remove the smart transmitter from your arm before charging the smart transmitter battery. Failure to remove 
the smart transmitter while it is charging could result in electrical shock.

Cautions (continued)
•   DO NOT attempt to use the Eversense App while operating a motor vehicle.
•   You should not receive massage therapy near the inserted sensor site. Massage therapy near the sensor site 
could cause discomfort or skin irritation.
•   Use only the AC power adapter and USB cable provided with the smart transmitter when charging the smart 
transmitter battery. Use of another power supply could damage the smart transmitter, not allowing glucose 
readings to be received properly, and could result in voiding your warranty.
•   If you have any concerns about allergic reaction to silicones, contact your physician prior to use.
•   Discard the patch after 24 hours of use.
•   The Eversense Now Remote Monitoring App does not replace the monitoring regimen as directed by your 
health care provider.
•   The Eversense CGM System has not been tested in the following populations:  women who are 
pregnant or nursing, people under the age of 18, critically ill or hospitalized patients, people receiving 
immunosuppressant therapy, chemotherapy or anti-coagulant therapy, those with another active implantable 
device, e.g., an implantable defibrillator (passive implants are allowed, e.g., cardiac stents), those with known 
allergies to or using systemic glucocorticoids (excluding topical, optical or nasal, but including inhaled).

Daily Use
To receive continuous glucose readings and information, keep the following in mind when using your smart transmitter:
  Wear your smart transmitter at all times except when charging.
  The smart transmitter is water-resistant to a depth of 1 meter (3.2 feet) for 30 minutes. Exposing the smart 
transmitter to conditions beyond this will result in damage and void your warranty.
 Make sure your smart transmitter has enough battery power at all times.
 Perform two blood glucose meter calibration tests each day when prompted.
 Pay attention to alerts and notifications you receive from your smart transmitter and mobile device. 
  Replace the smart transmitter with a new adhesive patch on a daily basis.
 You can remove the smart transmitter from the upper arm at any time, except during calibration. Remember that 
no data are collected when the smart transmitter is not communicating with the sensor. When you place the smart 
transmitter back on the sensor site, it will take about 10 minutes for sensor communication to re-start and for 
glucose readings to appear in the app.
  When the smart transmitter and mobile device are not within range of each other, any data gathered by the smart 
transmitter is stored and sent to the app when the mobile device and smart transmitter are back within range.
 It is safe for you to wear your sensor and smart transmitter when you go through metal detectors at airports. While 
flying, the smart transmitter performs similar to any other Bluetooth device. Be sure to follow the specific safety 
guidelines mandated by the airline.
Caution: Always remove the smart transmitter from your body before charging the battery. 
Warning: If your smart transmitter is damaged or cracked, DO NOT use, as this could create an electrical 
safety hazard or malfunction, and could result in electrical shock.

6. Calibrating the System
This section describes the calibration procedure and schedule of your Eversense CGM System.
To ensure best performance, routine calibration is required using fingerstick readings from a blood glucose meter. 
DO NOT use alternative test sites such as your forearm when entering BG values for calibration. Any commercially 
available meter may be used for calibration. Once your sensor has been inserted and linked to your smart transmitter, 
the system begins a 24-hour Warm-Up Phase. No calibration is required during this phase.
There are two calibration phases:
Initialization Phase – After the 24 Warm-Up Phase, you must complete 4 fingerstick calibration tests, spaced 2 to 12 
hours apart.
Daily Calibration Phase – After the Initialization Phase, you must complete 2 fingerstick calibration tests per day, 
spaced 10 to 14 hours apart.

Routine calibration is critically important to ensuring the best performance of the Eversense CGM System.  
The following tips can help you improve your calibration measurements:
Tips for ensuring good calibration:
   Calibrate at times when glucose is NOT changing rapidly (e.g., before meals, before dosing insulin).
   Calibrate when you know you will not be removing the smart transmitter during the next 15 minutes.
   Wash your hands with warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly before taking a blood glucose meter reading. 
It is very important to have clean, dry hands when you test your blood glucose. 
   Always follow the blood glucose meter manufacturer’s instructions to get accurate blood glucose readings 
for calibration.
   Be sure the code on test strip vial matches the code on your blood glucose meter (if coding is required).
Calibration will NOT be complete or results NOT accepted if:
   Blood glucose meter reading is less than 2.2 mmol/L.
   Blood glucose meter reading is greater than 22.2 mmol/L.
   Blood glucose meter reading was taken more than 10 minutes before entering the result in the Eversense App.
   Sensor glucose reading is significantly dierent than the blood glucose meter reading.
   Your smart transmitter was being charged during the 15 minutes after you entered your calibration value.

Calibration Phases
A. Initialization Phase (after 24-hour Warm-Up Phase)
During this phase, 4 fingerstick blood glucose meter tests are required.
•   The 4 calibration tests must be spaced 2 to 12 hours apart, and all 4tests must be completed within a 36 hour 
period.
– 1st calibration = 24 hours after sensor insertion.
– 2nd calibration = 2 to 12 hours after 1st successful calibration.
– 3rd calibration = 2 to 12 hours after 2nd successful calibration.
– 4th calibration = 2 to 12 hours after 3rd successful calibration.
•   Glucose readings will start displaying in the app a few minutes after the 2nd calibration is successfully completed.
IMPORTANT: If your smart transmitter is not turned on and paired with the Eversense App and sensor, the 
system is not able to prompt you to calibrate.
Re-Entering Initialization Phase
The following will cause the system to re-enter Initialization Phase.
•   Not completing a calibration test within a 12-hour period during the Initialization Phase.
•   Not completing all 4 calibration tests within 36 hours during the Initialization Phase.
•   Not completing 2 calibration tests within a 24-hour period during the Daily Calibration Phase  
(see B. Daily Calibration Phase).
•   When the last several blood glucose meter measurements are significantly dierent than the sensor glucose values.
•   If the smart transmitter is out of battery power for more than 16 hours.
•   When you receive a Sensor Check Alert.
•   Six hours after you receive a Sensor Suspend Alert.

B. Daily Calibration Phase
The Daily Calibration Phase requires 2 blood glucose meter tests at the scheduled morning and evening calibration 
times. The first Daily Calibration Phase will begin after successful completion of the Initialization Phase.
•  Y our system will automatically tell you when it is time to perform the twice-daily calibration test.
•   Daily Calibration times must be spaced 10 to 14 hours apart.
•   The system allows the calibration test to be taken up to 2 hours before the scheduled time. If you miss your 
scheduled calibration time, the system will prompt you hourly.
•   The  CALIBRATE screen provides the next allowable calibration time.
Note: If a Daily Calibration test is missed, no additional CGM readings will be displayed after 16 hours have elapsed 
since the last accepted calibration result. If a calibration test result is not entered within 24hours from the last 
accepted calibration, the system will re-enter the Initialization Phase.

Trend Graph
The trend graph is used to review and analyze historical data and trends in your glucose values over time. It also 
displays marks for events you have manually logged in the app (e.g., calibration tests and exercise).
There are several ways you can use the trend graph:
•   Quickly review how well you are doing when compared to the glucose targets and alert levels you set. The red 
dashed lines indicate your High and Low Glucose Alert levels, and the green dashed lines indicate your high and low 
glucose target levels (your target range).
•   Shaded areas of the graph are color coded as follows depending on the glucose settings you enter:
–   Glucose values that are outside of your glucose alert levels will be red.
–   Glucose values that are within your glucose target levels will be green.
–   Glucose values that are between your glucose target and alert levels  
will be yellow.
•   Press and hold any point in the line graph to view a specific glucose reading for 
that point in time.
•   Tap any of the marks on the app screen to get more information about the event or 
alert.
•   Pinch in and out on the screen to display dierent day/time ranges on the 
trendgraph. You can zoom in and out to display as few as 3 hours or up to 3 days 
of information.
•   To view trend graph data for a dierent date, tap the date on the screen and enter the desired date.
•   You can view the trend graph in either portrait or landscape mode. In landscape mode, there are shortcut buttons to 
see 7, 14, 30 and 90 day views.

15. My Circle
The Eversense CGM App includes an optional remote monitoring feature. The Eversense CGM App interacts with the 
Eversense Now Remote Glucose Monitoring App to allow other people to view your data.
Note: The Eversense Now Remote Monitoring App is only available for iOS. If you invite a member to your 
Circle who does not use an iOS mobile device, they will not be able to use the Eversense Now App to view  
your glucose data.
Risks
There may be times when glucose data cannot be sent to the Eversense Now App. lf a member of your Circle is not 
receiving glucose data from your Eversense CGM System, they cannot assist you in the event of a high or low glucose 
value. The secondary display and notifications on the Eversense NOW mobile app are not a replacement for the 
primary display on your Eversense CGM System mobile app.
Members of your Circle may not always have a connection to support data transfer such as internet/wifi or 3G/4G/LTE.  
If you or a member of your Circle does not have an internet connection, your glucose data will not be available for 
viewing on a secondary display. Any problems with mobile devices, wireless internet, data connection, the Eversense 
Data Management System (DMS) System, having your smart transmitter out of range of your mobile device, or 
charging your smart transmitter may prevent data from being displayed to members of your Circle. You should not 
rely on people remotely monitoring your glucose data to assist you in the event of a high or low glucose event.
The remote monitoring feature provides a secondary display of notifications and data to those in your Circle. It is not 
a real-time remote monitoring system.
Benefits
The Eversense CGM System used with the Eversense Now Remote Monitoring App may provide CGM users with 
additional confidence, knowing that others can also view their CGM data.

16. About the Sensor
This section describes the Eversense Sensor and how it is inserted by your physician.
The Eversense Sensor is a miniaturized fluorometer that uses fluorescent 
intensity to measure glucose in interstitial fluid. The sensor is implanted 
subcutaneously (under the skin) on the upper arm, leaving no part of the 
sensor protruding from the skin. The sensor remains in place and provides 
CGM measurements for up to 90 days.
The sensor is encased in a biocompatible material and utilizes a unique 
fluorescent, glucose indicating polymer. A light emitting diode embedded 
in the sensor excites the polymer, and the polymer then rapidly signals 
changes in glucose concentration via a change in light output. The 
measurement is then relayed to the smart transmitter. Measurements are 
completed automatically and require no action by the user.
The sensor is approximately 3.5 mm x 18.3 mm and has a silicone ring that 
contains a small amount of dexamethasone acetate, an anti-inflammatory 
steroid drug. The dexamethasone acetate minimizes inflammatory 
responses, very similar to common medical devices, such as pacemakers.

Insertion Steps
Your physician will explain and perform the simple and quick steps to insert the sensor. You will be fully awake during 
the approximately 5-minute insertion procedure.
Insertion site:
It is important to choose a site that is comfortable for you to wear the sensor and smart transmitter for the entire 
90 day period. It is recommended to have the sensor inserted toward the back of the upper arm. Placement in this 
area minimizes the chance of the sensor and smart transmitter being bumped by doorways, walls or other narrow 
passages. If possible, avoid areas with loose skin, scars, tattoos, nevus, or blood vessels that could be incised during 
the procedure.
Step 1:  Site preparation – the insertion site will be cleaned, disinfected, then anesthetized using lidocaine.
Step 2: Incision – a small (less than 1 centimeter) incision will be made at the insertion site.
Step 3:  Sensor insertion – a subcutaneous pocket will be created under the skin and the sensor will be inserted in 
this pocket.
Step 4: Site closure – the incision will be closed with an adhesive bandage. Sutures are not usually required.
Step 5:  Sensor and smart transmitter linking – link the sensor and smart transmitter to begin the 24-hour  
Warm-Up Phase.
Note: After insertion, link the smart transmitter and the sensor and then allow the incision site to heal 24 hours 
before replacing the transmitter.
The sensor requires 24 hours to stabilize within the insertion site, this period is known as the Warm-up Phase. After 
the first 24 hours of sensor insertion, position and secure the smart transmitter over the sensor and ensure you have a 
connection. (See Secure the Smart Transmitter over Inserted Sensor.) Then you can perform your Initialization Phase 
calibration of 4 fingerstick blood glucose tests to start getting glucose readings.

Removal Steps
Similarly to the insertion steps, your physician will explain the simple and quick steps for the sensor removal and you 
will be fully awake during the 5-minute (approximate) removal process.
Step 1:  Site preparation – the sensor site will be cleaned, disinfected, then anesthetized using lidocaine.
Step 2:  Incision – a small (less than 1 centimeter) incision will be made at the sensor site.
Step 3:  Sensor removal – the sensor will be removed and discarded.
Step 4:  Site closure – once removed, the incision will be closed with a steri-stip (sutures may be used depending 
on provider’s preference).

(e.g., calibration reminder).
An Alert is an important message that needs your 
attention and may require you to respond/take 
action.
Q:  What are rate of change alerts?
A:  Rate of Change Alerts notify you when your glucose 
level is falling or rising faster than the setting you 
entered in Settings > Glucose. You should 
immediately perform a fingerstick blood glucose test 
to confirm your glucose value.
Q:  What happens to the notifications if my app is 
disconnected from my smart transmitter?
A:  If the app is disconnected from your smart 
transmitter, but you have been wearing your smart 
transmitter over your sensor, the alerts received 
during that time will be sent to the app once it is 
reconnected and synced with the smart transmitter.
Q:  Why am I unable to see notifications when the app 
is in the background?
A:  Refer to your mobile device instructions to enable the 
notifications in the background.
Q:  How can I sort the notifications on the ALERT 
HISTORY screen?
A:   The  ALERT HISTORY screen has a sort filter 
at the top. You can sort based on the severity levels 
(yellow and blue), and alert type. Tap the desired sort 
filter icon.
Q: What are predictive alerts?
A:  Predictive Alerts notify you in advance of an event 
that is likely to occur if current trends continue. 
Predictive Alerts use High and Low Glucose Alert 
levels you set to determine when the Predictive Alerts 
occur. You can set the alerts to notify you at 10, 20, 
or 30 minutes in advance of when the CGM System 
anticipates you reaching the alert levels you set. 
Your smart transmitter will vibrate, and your app will 
sound an alert and display a message on the  
MY GLUCOSE screen to notify you of a predicted 
high or low glucose. You should immediately perform 
a fingerstick blood glucose test to confirm your 
glucose value.

Glucose Readings
Q.  Why is my sensor reading dierent from my blood 
glucose meter reading?
A:  The Eversense CGM System measures glucose in 
interstitial fluid (ISF) between the body’s cells. 
Physiologic dierences between ISF and blood from 
a fingerstick may result in dierences in glucose 
measurements. These dierences are especially 
evident during times of rapid change in blood glucose 
(e.g., after eating, dosing insulin, or exercising). On 
average, glucose levels in ISF lag behind glucose 
levels in blood by several minutes.
Q:  I am getting “--  --  --” in place of sensor glucose 
readings on the app.
A:  You may not get any sensor glucose readings 
when there is no connection between your smart 
transmitter and your sensor or smart transmitter and 
mobile device.
You may also not get any readings when one of the 
alerts below is activated:
•  No sensor detected.
•  Out of Range High or Out of Range Low Glucose 
Sensor reading.
•  Low Sensor Temperature.
•  High Ambient Light.
•  Sensor Check.
•  High Smart Transmitter Temperature.
•  High Sensor Temperature.
•  Empty Battery.
•  Calibration Past Due.
•  New Sensor Detected.
•  Sensor Replacement.
•  Calibration Expired.
•  Smart Transmitter Error.
•  Sensor Suspend Alert.
Please follow the instructions provided in the 
notification message to clear the Alert.

Trend Arrows
Q:  My trend arrows and glucose alerts do not match.
A:  Trend arrows indicate the rate and direction of 
change in glucose levels. For example, you may have 
a trend arrow that points up or down (indicating slow 
or rapid changes). Glucose alerts notify you when 
your current glucose level reaches the alert level you 
set, regardless of the rate or direction of change.
Q:  My trend arrow is gray instead of blue.
A:  The CGM System uses the last 20 minutes of 
continuous glucose data for calculating and 
displaying the trend arrow. When there are not 
enough sensor values available for the calculation, 
the arrow is displayed in gray.
App
Q:  What will happen if I re-install the app?
A:  Upon re-installing the app, the app will download 
historical data only from the last 3 days.
Q:  What version of the app is installed on my mobile 
device?
A:  You can find the app software version by tapping 
Menu > About > Product Information.
Q:  How will my app be updated?
A:  Visit www.eversensediabetes.com for instructions on 
updating the app software.
Q:  What devices are compatible with the Eversense 
App?

Sensor
Q:  Can the sensor be inserted in another body part 
besides my upper arm?
A:  The Eversense CGM System was only tested in the 
upper arm during clinical studies.
Q:  When do I need to replace my sensor?
A:  Your sensor lasts up to 90 days. You will receive 
periodic notices (30, 14, 7, 3, 2, and 1 day prior) to 
remind you when the sensor needs to be replaced. 
Contact your physician to schedule a sensor 
replacement.
Q:  Can I extend the 90 day life of the sensor?
A:  The sensor will no longer provide glucose readings 
after 90 days of wear and must be replaced.
Q:  Where can I find the sensor serial number?
A:  You can view the sensor serial number by tapping 
Menu > About > My Sensor.
Q:  Can I still use the same smart transmitter if I switch 
to a new mobile device?
A:  You will need to install the app on your new mobile 
device and pair it with your smart transmitter. The 
last 3 days of historical data will be synced to the app 
on the new mobile device.
Q:  What is the Do Not Disturb option?
A:  When Do Not Disturb is enabled in the Eversense 
App Settings, the smart transmitter will stop 
providing vibratory notifications for non-critical 
alerts. Critical alerts will still be provided via on-body 
vibe alerts. All alerts and notifications will continue 
to be provided on the mobile app.
Note that the Do Not Disturb feature on your 
smartphone overrides the Do Not Disturb option in 
the app. So if the Do Not Disturb feature on your 
smartphone is turned on, you will not receive the 
alerts on the smart transmitter or in the app.
Q:  Why does my status bar say “syncing”?
A:  “Syncing” will appear in the status bar when the app 
on your mobile device is connecting to your smart 
transmitter.

Q:  Why do I see a “New Sensor Detected” 
notification?
A:  This message appears when your smart transmitter 
detects a new sensor so you may link the smart 
transmitter and sensor. The smart transmitter can 
only be linked to one sensor at a time. If you see 
a New Sensor Detected message and you 
already have a sensor inserted and linked to your 
smart transmitter, tap Not Now. If unsure, contact 
Customer Support for more information.
Q:  I have just linked a sensor and smart transmitter for 
the first time, but the insertion date and/or time  
do not show when I tap About > My Sensor.
A:  It may take up to 10 minutes for the linking process 
to complete. Be sure the smart transmitter is on top 
of the sensor. Confirm the LINKED SENSOR 
screen shows a check mark for Linking Process 
Complete. Navigate to the MY GLUCOSE 
screen and wait about 2 minutes. Return to the MY 
SENSOR screen. If the correct insertion date and 
time are still not displayed, follow these steps:
1.  Remove the smart transmitter from the insertion 
site. Connect it with the charging cable and power 
supply. Plug the power supply into the wall outlet 
and then unplug it and disconnect it from charging 
cable.
2.  Replace smart transmitter over sensor. Navigate 
to About > My Sensor and confirm correct 
insertion date and time. If problem persists, contact 
Customer Support.
Q:  I have just linked a sensor and smart transmitter but 
the About > My Transmitter does not show the 
correct Current Phase.
A:  It may take up to 10 minutes for the linking process to 
complete. Be sure the smart transmitter is on top of 
the sensor. Confirm the LINKED SENSOR screen 
shows a check mark for Linking Process Complete. 
Navigate to the MY GLUCOSE screen and wait 
about 2 minutes. Return to the MY SENSOR 
screen. If the correct insertion date and time are still 
not displayed, follow these steps: 
1.  Remove the smart transmitter from the insertion 
site.
2.  Connect it with the charging cable and power 
supply.
3.  Plug the power supply into the wall outlet and then 
unplug it and disconnect it from charging cable.
4.  Replace the smart transmitter over the sensor.

Events
Q:  How can I sort my events on the EVENT LOG 
screen?
A:   The  EVENT LOG screen has a sort filter at the 
top of the screen. Tap the desired sort filter icon to 
include and exclude events from the list. The default 
sort option is to show ALL events.
Sync
Q:  Why do I sometimes see a blue and white progress 
bar across the top of my screen?
A:  You will see this syncing progress bar for several 
reasons.
•  Your smart transmitter was out of range of your 
sensor for a while and it is re-syncing.
•  You closed the Eversense App completely and  
re-launched it.
•  Your mobile device lost battery power and was 
recharged.
•  Your data is being uploaded to your Eversense  
DMS account.
Q:  Why did my CGM System re-enter Initialization 
Phase?
A:  You will re-enter Initialization Phase for any one of 
the following reasons:
•  Calibration period has expired without you having 
entered a fingerstick test value.
•  3 or more blood glucose readings are significantly 
dierent than the current sensor glucose readings.
•  Your smart transmitter has not been charged 
within 16 hours of the empty battery alert.
•  If you manually change the time on your mobile 
device your smart transmitter will sync and 
reinitialize to your mobile device.

19. Device Performance
This section lists Device Performance Characteristics.
Clinical Study Performance
The performance of the Eversense CGM System was evaluated in a multi-site, non-randomized clinical study. 
Adult (older than 17 years old) subjects with diabetes were enrolled at 7 dierent sites in 3 dierent countries. 
Each subject had 2 separate sensors inserted, one in each upper arm. One sensor was used to display glucose 
data on the subject’s mobile device and the other sensor was used to collect glucose data but was not displayed 
to the subject. Forty-four (44) subjects were followed for 90 days following the insertion of the sensor. Accuracy 
assessments were made at various points during the study, and subjects were asked to report any adverse events 
throughout the study. The Mean Absolute Relative Dierence (MARD) measured throughout the 90 days was 11.4% 
for glucose values over 4.2 mmol/L.

Overall System Performance Compared to YSI
The study demonstrated that 83.8% of overall CGM System readings were within ± 20% of YSI values, 93.9% were 
within ± 30% of YSI values, and 97.5% were within ± 40% of YSI values. The chart below provides a percentage 
breakdown by glucose range.

Overall 10442 83.8% 93.9% 97.5%
*The absolute dierence from the YSI reading is measured in mmol/L if the YSI reading is ≤ 3.9 mmol/L.
Although device measurement errors may have been present in either YSI or sensor readings, and interstitial values 
(sensor) are known to have time lags in responses to changing blood glucose levels compared to blood values (YSI), 
it was demonstrated that 80% or greater of dierences were within 20%/1.1 mmol/L (20% for YSI values greater 
than 3.9 mmol/L, within 1.1 mmol/L for YSI values ≤ 3.9 mmol/L). The level of agreement increased to above 92% for 
dierences within 30%/1.7 mmol/L and above 96% for dierences within 40%/2.2 mmol/L.

Clarke Error Grid Analysis 
The Clarke Error Grid Analysis (EGA) is one of the standards for quantifying the accuracy of CGM systems.  
Clarke EGA measures accuracy by comparing subject glucose values taken from their CGM system to reference 
values taken in a lab.
Clarke EGA calculates accuracy by looking at the number and percentage of data points that fell into 5 “clinical risk” 
zones. Data is presented in both graph and chart formats.
• Zone A  (no risk) contains CGM values that fell within ±20% of the reference values.
– Zone A values are considered to be within the acceptable accuracy range of CGM systems.
• Zone B  (no risk) contains CGM values that fell outside ±20% of the reference values.
–  Zone B values are not considered to be within the acceptable accuracy range, but their dierence from 
the reference values would not lead a subject to making an inappropriate treatment decision.
• Zone C  (low risk) contains CGM values that diered enough from the reference values that a subject might make 
an unnecessary treatment decision based on the CGM information.
• Zone D  (medium risk) contains CGM values that were correctly identified as hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic by 
the reference system but not the CGMsystem.
–  Not correctly identifying a CGM value as hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic is a potentially dangerous 
situation.
• Zone E  (high risk) contains CGM values that were incorrectly identified as hypoglycemic when the reference 
system correctly identified them as hyperglycemic (and vice versa).
–  Mistakenly identifying a CGM value as hypoglycemic when it is actually hyperglycemic (or vice versa) is 
a potentially dangerous situation.

Consensus (Parkes) Error Grid Analysis
The Consensus Error Grid Analysis (CEG) is another standard for quantifying the accuracy of CGM systems. CEG is 
similar to the Clarke EGA in that it assigns the dierences (errors) between the CGM system values and reference 
values to one of 5 “clinical risk” regions. But the CEG diers from the Clarke EGA in that the risk regions are 
continuous (A through E), whereas with the Clarke EGA they are not continuous (e.g., A is next to D).
CEG percentages were calculated for the total number of CGM readings.

Sensor Life
Sensor life measured how many days out of the intended 90-day duration period subjects were able to continue 
using the sensor to record CGM readings.
Overall, the analysis estimated that 87.5% of sensors remained functioning through 90 days.
Smart Transmitter Wear
Smart transmitter wear measured how many hours of the day subjects wore the smart transmitter. Overall, subjects 
wore their smart transmitters an average of 22.3 hours per day, with a median of 23.5 hours.
Safety
The number of adverse events were recorded over the first 90 days of the study period.
The CGM system was extremely well tolerated in the study. There were no serious adverse events reported that were 
related to use of the system or the insertion procedure. A total of 37 adverse events were reported in 26 subjects, all 
recorded as mild. Twelve (12) of these were related to the sensor insertion procedure. None of the adverse events 
resulted in hospitalization due to hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, or ketoacidosis.
