Safety
Information: Users should read all of the
instructions in the User’s Guide before using FreeStyle Navigator® Continuous
Glucose Monitoring System. Adjustments to treatment should be done under the
guidance of the user’s healthcare team.
Indications
for Use: The FreeStyle
Navigator® Continuous Glucose Monitoring System is indicated for
continually recording interstitial fluid glucose levels in people (ages 18 and
older) with diabetes mellitus for the purpose of improving diabetes management.
Readings and alarms about glucose levels from the FreeStyle
Navigator® Continuous Glucose Monitoring System are not intended to
replace traditional blood glucose monitoring. Before adjusting therapy for
diabetes management based on results and alarms from the FreeStyle
Navigator® Continuous Glucose Monitoring System, traditional blood
glucose tests must be performed. The FreeStyle Navigator® Continuous
Glucose Monitoring System provides a built-in blood glucose meter to confirm
the continuous glucose result.
The FreeStyle
Navigator® Continuous Glucose Monitoring System provides real-time
readings, graphs, trends, and glucose alarms directly to the user. The
FreeStyle Navigator® Continuous Glucose Monitoring System is
intended to be used in home settings to aid people with diabetes in predicting
and detecting episodes of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia and in clinical
settings to aid healthcare professionals in evaluating glucose control. The
FreeStyle Navigator® Continuous Glucose Monitoring
System is available only by prescription.
Contraindications:
The FreeStyle
Navigator® Continuous Glucose Monitoring System must be removed
prior to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
Prescription
Device: Federal law restricts the sale
of this device by or on order of a physician.
Warnings/Precautions:
Infection, inflammation,
or bleeding at the glucose sensor insertion site are possible risks of
inserting a sensor into your skin. If you believe your results are not
reliable, or are inconsistent with how you feel, perform a blood glucose mode
test to measure your glucose. If the problem continues, discard the old sensor
and insert a new sensor. Performance of the system under conditions of
fluctuating hydration levels such as during renal dialysis has not been
evaluated. Unintended dislodging of the sensor due to excessive perspiration,
exercise, or bumping, may cause unreliable or no results without warning.
Performance of the FreeStyle Navigator® system has not been
evaluated in pregnant women.
*Movement of the
sensor support mount or excessive perspiration at the sensor insertion site due
to activities like vigorous exercise or bumping against objects may lead to
poor adhesion of the support mount to the skin and cause the sensor to
dislodge. If the sensor dislodges due to the sensor support adhesive failing to
adhere to the skin, you may get unreliable results or no results. The system
may not provide a warning in such circumstances. Choose the proper sensor
insertion site when inserting the sensor and prepare the site by following the
instructions for site preparation.
