Dexcom G6

Description

The Dexcom G6, which is designed for people with diabetes aged 2 and up, is the most recent continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system, offering glucose readings every 5 minutes to individuals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Glucose readings from the Dexcom CGM system are sent to a smart device or the Dexcom receiver.

The system is factory-calibrated, which eliminates the need for fingerstick calibrations. The Dexcom G6 is made up of three parts:

1. A sensor;
2. A transmitter;
3. A display device (receiver and/or compatible smart device).
