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. Benefits and Risks
This section describes the benefits, 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 differences between
ISF and blood from a fingerstick may result in differences in glucose measurements. These differences 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 effects 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 Effects
The glucose alerts and notifications will not audibly notify the user when the sound on your mobile device is turned
off. 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
different from your blood glucose meter. This may cause an alert to activate at a different 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 different 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.

11/4/16 2:44 PM
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 effects 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.

11/4/16 2:44 PM
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).

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.
Eversense CGM User Guide
LBL-0302-01-101 Rev 1_Eversense User Guide_mmolL_R5.indd 41
41
11/4/16 2:44 PM
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 different than the blood glucose meter reading.
 Your smart transmitter was being charged during the 15 minutes after you entered your calibration value.

11/4/16 2:44 PM
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 4 tests 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 different 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.

11/4/16 2:44 PM
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.
• Your 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 24 hours 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 different day/time ranges on the
trend graph. 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 different 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.
Note: All of your glucose data will be stored in the app as long as you have memory available on your mobile device.

This section describes how to customize settings in your Eversense CGM System.
Areas where you can customize app settings include:
• Glucose – glucose levels and change rates that will trigger an alert.
• Daily Calibration – your morning and evening calibration reminders.
• System – identifies or lets you enter personalized information about your system.
• Mealtimes – your times for each meal so that glucose reports can help show how meals may affect readings.
•	Sound Settings – change the sounds for some glucose alerts, set snooze times and Do No Disturb for the
Eversense App.
•
•
Temp Profile – set a temporary glucose profile.
Log Out – log out of your Eversense Account.
Glucose Levels
The Eversense CGM System is designed to provide alerts on your smart transmitter and mobile device when your
glucose level has reached the alert levels you set. You will decide the settings for your glucose alerts, targets, and
rates of change based on input from your health care provider.

Warning:
•	Before making a dosing decision, perform a fingerstick blood glucose test to confirm the sensor glucose
result.
•	The Low and High Glucose Alerts are designed to assist you in managing your diabetes and should not be
exclusively used to detect hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. The alerts should always be used in conjunction
with other indications of glycemic state such as your glucose level, trend, line graph etc.
IMPORTANT:
• Low and High Glucose Alerts are different from your Low and High Glucose Targets.
– Low and High Glucose Alerts notify you on your mobile device and smart transmitter when you have
crossed a certain low or high value.
– Glucose Targets are used in the reports and line graphs to show how your glucose levels have been
performing compared to the targets you set. You will not receive an alert when you have reached your
Glucose Target levels.

Appears every 20 minutes when your smart
transmitter is receiving too much ambient light,
affecting its ability to communicate with the sensor.
No glucose reading can be displayed until ambient
light is reduced.
Contact your physician to have your sensor replaced. Reduce ambient light by doing one or more of the
following:
•	Move to an area where there is less light exposure.
•	Place a dark material over the smart transmitter.

conditions.
Reduce the smart transmitter temperature by moving
to a cooler environment. Once the smart transmitter
temperature is below 42 °C (108 °F), it will resume
displaying glucose values.
Vibration Motor
Appears every 20 minutes when the vibration motor on
your smart transmitter can no longer provide on-body
vibe alerts. You will continue to get glucose readings up
to 72 hours after receiving the alert message. After
72 hours, you will receive a Transmitter Error Alert every
20 minutes until you replace the smart transmitter.
Contact Customer Support to have your smart
transmitter replaced immediately.
You may temporarily remove the smart transmitter
to cool it down. Once the smart transmitter is back

Remote Monitoring with Eversense CGM System and
Eversense Now App
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.
15
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.

Warnings
•	Glucose information displayed on the Eversense Now App should not be used to make treatment decisions.
Always use blood glucose values from your meter to make treatment decisions. Using a sensor glucose value to
make a treatment decision could result in a high or low blood glucose. The Eversense Now App is a secondary
display of Eversense CGM data and should not be used in place of the primary Eversense CGM display.
•	You should not rely on those who are remotely monitoring your glucose to notify you about high or low
glucose events.
Cautions
•	The Eversense Now Remote Mobile App does not replace the monitoring regimen as directed by your health
care provider.
•	If you do not have Auto Sync (the feature that enables data to automatically be sent to your Eversense Now
app) turned on, you cannot share data with those in your Circle and they will not see high or low glucose
trends and events.
•	If you and the members of your Circle do not have an internet connection, or the mobile device has shut down
due low or empty battery, your Eversense CGM data cannot be displayed on the Eversense Now App.
•	If the members of your Circle turn off the sounds on their mobile device, they will not receive audible alerts
about your CGM data on their Eversense Now App.
•	If you set your status to offline with any of the members of your Circle, they will not receive any of your CGM
data on their Eversense Now App. DO NOT set your status to offline if you want members of your Circle to see
your CGM data.
15
•	The Eversense Now app does not communicate directly with the Eversense Sensor and/or with the Eversense
Smart Transmitter.
•	The Eversense Now app cannot change the settings on the Eversense CGM App.
•	If you do not Allow notifications from the Eversense Now app, you will not receive glucose related alerts from
Eversense CGM users.

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.
Eversense Sensor
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.
16
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).

Glucose Readings
Q. Why is my sensor reading different from my blood
glucose meter reading?
A: The Eversense CGM System measures glucose in
interstitial fluid (ISF) between the body’s cells.
Physiologic differences between ISF and blood from
a fingerstick may result in differences in glucose
measurements. These differences 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.

Trend Arrows
App
Q: My trend arrows and glucose alerts do not match.
Q: What will happen if I re-install the app?
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.
A: Upon re-installing the app, the app will download
historical data only from the last 3 days.
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

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

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 different sites in 3 different 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 Difference (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

*The absolute difference 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 differences 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
differences within 30%/1.7 mmol/L and above 96% for differences 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 difference from
the reference values would not lead a subject to making an inappropriate treatment decision.
•
Zone C (low risk) contains CGM values that differed 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 CGM system.
– 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 differences (errors) between the CGM system values and reference
values to one of 5 “clinical risk” regions. But the CEG differs 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.

Your sole and exclusive remedy, and the sole and exclusive obligation of Senseonics under this limited warranty is
to repair or replace, at its sole discretion, without charge to you, any defective Smart Transmitter, provided that the
defect arises and a valid claim is received by Senseonics within the Limited Warranty Period. You must return the
defective Smart Transmitter to an authorized Senseonics Customer Service Department in an appropriate shipping
container that will adequately protect the Smart Transmitter from further damage, accompanied by your name and
address, the name and address of the physician from whom you obtained the Smart Transmitter, and the date and
the ID number of the Smart Transmitter. To find out where to send the Smart Transmitter, please visit our website
www.eversensediabetes.com. Upon receipt, if Senseonics determines that the Smart Transmitter is covered by
the limited warranty and that coverage is not excluded, Senseonics will promptly replace the Smart Transmitter.
If Senseonics determines that the Smart Transmitter is not covered by the limited warranty, you may purchase a
replacement or if you want the original Smart Transmitter returned, you must prepay all shipping charges.
A repaired or replacement Smart Transmitter assumes the remaining warranty of the original Smart Transmitter, or
[30] days from the date of replacement or repair, whichever is longer.

FCC Information
Your smart transmitter complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Senseonics, Inc., could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
These guidelines help ensure that your smart transmitter will not affect the operation of other nearby electronic
devices. Additionally, other electronic devices should not affect the use of your smart transmitter.
With the exception of your mobile device, other electronic wireless devices that are in use nearby, such as a cell
phone, microwave or a wireless network, may prevent or delay the transmission of data from your smart transmitter
to the app. Moving away from or turning off these electronic devices may allow communication.
The smart transmitter has been tested and found to be appropriate for use at home. In most cases, it should not
interfere with other home electronic devices if used as instructed. However, this smart transmitter gives off RF energy.
If not used correctly, your smart transmitter may interfere with your TV, radio or other electronic devices that receive
or transmit RF signals.
If you experience smart transmitter interference problems, try moving away from the source of the interference. You
can also move the electronic device or its antenna to another location to solve the problem.
If you continue to experience interference, contact customer service for the manufacturer of the electronic device
causing the interference.
