Insulin pumps
MiniMed™ 780G insulin pump
<p>The MiniMed™ 780G system is an automated insulin delivery system designed to reduce highs without increasing lows for people living with diabetes.</p>
Features
Take the guesswork out of mealtimes with adaptive control
Automated insulin 24/7, even when carb counts aren't exact.†§
If the system detects a meal based on the sensor glucose's rising rate of change, it can automatically deliver stronger correction doses while sensor glucose values are rising, up to every 5 minutes.
To learn more about how Meal Detection™ technology works, watch this video featuring distinguished engineer, Lou Lintereur.
Use of recommended settings yields the highest Time in Range
Safely treats to a low glucose target of 100 mg/dL without increasing hypoglycemia when using recommended settings2
80% Time in Range seen worldwide¶
Recommended settings¶ of 100 mg/dL and 2 hr AIT have shown consistent results globally.2 Real-world results# in adults showed patients achieved up to 80% Time in Range with recommended settings¶ without increasing hypoglycemia.2
Life with diabetes just got easier
Improvements made with both patients and healthcare providers in mind

Yes, the FDA has approved the MiniMed™ 780G system and Medicare has completed the coding verification process. Patient orders will follow the normal processes for shipping.
Using the system does not completely replace fingersticks but patients will likely check their blood glucose less frequently. The Simplera Sync™ sensor and Guardian™ 4 sensor do not require a blood glucose fingerstick to calibrate the system or make treatment decisions with SmartGuard™ technology†. For much of the time, patients will not need to do a fingerstick. However, when using the Simplera Sync™ or Guardian™ 4 sensor with the MiniMed™ 780G system, safety precautions were put in place to maximize the performance of the SmartGuard™ algorithm. Because of this, there are instances when the pump will prompt a blood glucose request from the user.
* Refers to SmartGuard™ technology. Some user interaction required. Individual results may vary.
† Fingersticks required in manual mode & to enter SmartGuard™. If symptoms don’t match alerts & readings, use a fingerstick. Refer to user guide. Pivotal trial participants spend avg of > 93% in SmartGuard™.
Yes. The MiniMed™ 780G system transmits to the patient's smartphone via wireless technology. Patients and care partners are able to see real-time sugar trends on a smartphone anytime. Available to download at no cost for most iOS and Android smartphones. View this reference chart for a list of compatible smartphones.
At the time of manufacture and when the reservoir and tubing are properly inserted, your pump is waterproof. It is protected against the effects of being underwater to a depth of up to 12 feet (3.6 meters) for up to 24 hours. This is classified as IPX8 rating. See user guide for more details. The sensor and transmitter are water-resistant at 8 feet (2.4 meters) for up to 30 minutes. CGM readings may not be transmitted from the CGM to the pump while in water.
