Medtronic’s MiniMed 780G System Receives the US FDA’s Approval for the Treatment of Type 1 Diabetes
Shots:
- The US FDA has approved the MiniMed 780G system with the Guardian 4 sensor. The system features SmartGuard technology that automatically adjusts insulin delivery & corrects glucose levels every 5 minutes, 24/7 with no finger pricks for basal & bolus insulin needs
- The system also offers multiple glucose targets as compared to a single target. In a pivotal trial, use of the MiniMed 780G System was associated with a time in the range of 70-180 mg/dL of 75% & an overall time below the range of 1.8%
- In the ADAPT study, MiniMed780G System users experienced a 27.6% increase in time in range and a 1.4% reduction in mean HbA1C over those using multiple daily injections in conjunction with an intermittently scanned CGM without increased time in hypoglycemia
