This could be especially useful for parents, who could be alerted through a predictive alarm in the middle of the night if their child\u2019s glucose levels are falling, allowing them to take action to prevent an episode of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). For a caregiver of someone with type 1 diabetes, nighttime hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) represents one of their greatest concerns.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cMany of the parents of our patients wake up a couple of times every night to check their child\u2019s blood sugar level and even that may not be enough to prevent episodes of severe hypoglycemia,\u201d said William Tamborlane, M.D., Chief of Pediatric Endocrinology and Deputy Director of the Yale Center for Clinical Investigation. \u201cAdvances in continuous glucose monitoring, including remote monitoring like mySentry, have given parents an added level of protection from dangerous nighttime hypoglycemia occurring in their sleeping child, as well as a means to improve their quality of life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An estimated 75 percent of all episodes of severe hypoglycemia in children occur at night. By alerting a parent or caregiver to an alarm, mySentry may provide added nighttime protection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe\u2019re excited to bring this new innovation to market that could give caregivers greater peace of mind. The mySentry Remote Glucose Monitor is the first step toward our vision to develop an entire category of Connected Care products that help people more proactively manage their diabetes by making it easier and more convenient to access the wealth of information captured by our integrated insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system,\u201d said Greg Meehan, Vice President and General Manager of the Continuous Glucose Monitoring business at Medtronic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">mySentry is used in conjunction with the MiniMed Paradigm\u00ae REAL-Time Revel\u2122 System, an insulin pump with built-in continuous glucose monitoring. mySentry can be placed in the bedroom or in any room throughout the house so all important information is just a glance away. mySentry provides flexibility and a wide range of uses including displaying all of the alerts and alarms available on the Paradigm Revel insulin pump: predictive alerts, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) graph, insulin pump battery life, amount of insulin remaining, and time until the next glucose sensor calibration.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Source:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.medtronicdiabetes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.medtronicdiabetes.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Medtronic announced the U.S. market launch of the first-of-its-kind mySentry\u2122 Remote Glucose Monitor, which allows a parent or caregiver to monitor from another room a patient\u2019s MiniMed Paradigm\u00ae REAL-Time Revel\u2122 System.
