Tandem Email TemplateHi All, 

I’m forwarding the below announcement email that I received from Tandem regarding their pump that will now integrate with the Dexcom. I’m not sure if this means that the Tandem would now be accessible if it can be used with the  Dexcom app or not. I had called them a while back and they told me there insulin pump wasn’t accessible, but I can’t help but wonder if this might be a game changer.

                        RX ONLY. The t:slim X2 Insulin Pump is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring insulin. The t:slim X2 Insulin Pump can be used solely for continuous insulin delivery and as part of the t:slim X2 System to receive and display continuous glucose measurements from the Dexcom G5 Mobile Sensor and Transmitter. The t:slim X2 System also includes continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) indicated for the management of diabetes. The Dexcom G5 Mobile CGM is designed to replace fingerstick blood glucose testing for diabetes treatment decisions. The t:slim X2 System aids in the detection of episodes of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, facilitating both acute and long-term therapy adjustments, which may minimize these excursions. Interpretation of the t:slim X2 System results should be based on the trends and patterns seen with several sequential readings over time. The t:slim X2 System is indicated for use in individuals 6 years of age and greater. The t:slim X2 System is intended for single patient use and requires a prescription. The device is indicated for use with NovoLog or Humalog U-100 insulin. For detailed indications for use and safety information, call Tandem Toll-Free at (877) 801-6901 or visit www.tandemdiabetes.com/safetyinfo
