Looking for the perfect CGM match for your Medtronic MiniMed 780G system? 💙 Choosing a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) is a commitment! Join Dr. Steve Edelman and Dr. Jeremy Pettus in this fun, "Bachelor-style" dating game special where we skip the awkward small talk and find out which sensor is "The One" for your diabetes management lifestyle. In this video, Dr. Pettus interviews three top sensor contestants competing for a long-term relationship with the MiniMed 780G Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) system. Meet the Contestants: 🌹 Contestant #1: Instinct (by Abbott) – The "low maintenance" partner. Features 15-day wear, a discreet design, and easy one-handed insertion with no overtape required. 🌹 Contestant #2: Simplera Sync™ sensor – The "streamlined" partner. About the size of a quarter with a 2-hour warm-up. Its 7-day wear time perfectly syncs with your MiniMed 780G infusion set changes. 🌹 Contestant #3: Guardian™ 4 sensor – The "reliable veteran." A familiar, trusted option that paved the way for automated insulin delivery with established integration.
