Dexcom ONE 30 Day Starter Kit

Dexcom ONE Continuous Glucose Monitor 30 Day Starter Kit

The Dexcom ONE continuous glucose monitor provides real-time glucose readings without the need for routine finger prick tests. This 30-day starter kit includes everything you need to begin continuous glucose monitoring, offering glucose readings every minute directly to your smartphone or compatible device.

This system uses a small sensor placed under your skin to measure glucose levels in your tissue fluid. The sensor communicates wirelessly with the Dexcom ONE app, allowing you to track your glucose trends and patterns throughout the day and night.

How the Dexcom ONE System Works

The Dexcom ONE sensor measures glucose levels in your interstitial fluid every minute and transmits this data to your smartphone via Bluetooth. The system provides glucose readings, trend arrows showing whether your levels are rising or falling, and customisable alerts for high and low glucose levels.

Each sensor is designed to be worn for up to 10 days before replacement. The waterproof design allows you to shower, swim, and exercise whilst wearing the sensor. For comprehensive health monitoring, you might also consider our diabetes monitoring range for additional testing supplies.

Who Can Use Dexcom ONE

This glucose monitoring system is suitable for people with diabetes aged 2 years and older. It's particularly beneficial for those who want to reduce finger prick testing whilst maintaining tight glucose control.

• People with type 1 or type 2 diabetes requiring frequent glucose monitoring
• Those experiencing frequent hypoglycaemic episodes
• Individuals wanting to understand their glucose patterns and trends
• People seeking to reduce the number of daily finger prick tests

Real-Time Glucose Monitoring Benefits

Unlike traditional blood glucose meters that provide a single reading at one point in time, the Dexcom ONE offers continuous monitoring with trend information. This helps you understand how food, exercise, stress, and medication affect your glucose levels throughout the day.

The system can alert you to impending high or low glucose levels before they become problematic, potentially helping you take corrective action sooner. The data collected can also be shared with your healthcare team to help optimise your diabetes management plan.

Clinical Accuracy and Sensor Placement

The Dexcom ONE sensor is designed for placement on the back of your upper arm and should be inserted using the provided applicator. The sensor insertion is designed to be simple and can be done at home following the manufacturer's instructions.

Whilst the system provides highly accurate readings, you should still perform finger prick tests when making treatment decisions if your symptoms don't match your sensor readings, or if you're experiencing rapidly changing glucose levels.
