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.

Our pre-qualification form will ask you a few questions about your diabetes type, therapy and your current insurance provider - this will allow us to tell you what your insurance may cover for Eversense. Our Eversense Expert will then get in touch with you to confirm your details and submit the claim to your insurance provider and work directly with your health care provider and a distribution partner to order your Eversense 365 CGM.
Eversense gives you real-time glucose readings through a small sensor that’s placed just under the skin of your upper arm by a healthcare provider. The smart transmitter sits above the sensor, sending glucose data to your app. Want to learn more about the science behind Eversense? Check out our “How Eversense Works” video!

The Eversense® E3 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System is indicated for continually measuring glucose levels for up to 180 days in persons with diabetes age 18 and older. The system is indicated for use to replace fingerstick blood glucose (BG) measurements for diabetes treatment decisions. Fingerstick BG measurements are still required for calibration primarily one time a day after day 21, and when symptoms do not match CGM information or when taking medications of the tetracycline class. The sensor insertion and removal procedures are performed by a health care provider. The Eversense E3 CGM System is a prescription device; patients should talk to their health care provider to learn more.
