2. Benefits and Risks
This section describes the benefits, expectations and risks associated with using the Eversense
CGM System.
Continuous glucose monitoring aids in the management of diabetes and glucose control, which can improve your quality of life. Best results are achieved when you are fully informed about the risks and benefits, insertion procedure, follow-up requirements, and self-care responsibilities. You should not have the sensor inserted if you cannot properly operate the CGM System.
The CGM System measures glucose in interstitial fluid (ISF) between the body’s cells. Physiologic differences between
ISF and blood from a fingerstick may result in differences in glucose measurements. These differences are especially evident during times of rapid change in blood glucose (e.g., after eating, dosing insulin, or exercising), and for some people, during the first several days after insertion due to inflammation that may result from the insertion procedure.
Glucose levels in ISF lag behind glucose levels in blood by several minutes.
IMPORTANT: If your symptoms do not match the glucose alerts and readings from the Eversense CGM
System, a fingerstick blood glucose check with a home blood glucose meter should be performed prior to making treatment decisions.
Failure to use the Eversense CGM System in accordance with the instructions for use may result in you missing a hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic glucose event, which may result in injury.
The sensor has a silicone ring that contains a small amount of an anti-inflammatory drug (dexamethasone acetate).
It has not been determined whether the risks associated with injectable dexamethasone acetate apply to the dexamethasone acetate elution ring inside the sensor. The elution ring releases a small amount of dexamethasone acetate when the sensor comes in contact with body fluids and serves to minimize the body’s inflammatory response to the inserted sensor. Dexamethasone acetate in the ring may also cause other adverse events not previously seen with the injectable form. For a listing of potentially adverse effects related to dexamethasone acetate, contact your health care provider.

Unauthorized modifications of the equipment, improperly accessing information within it or “jailbreaking” your system, and taking any other unauthorized actions may cause the CGM system to malfunction and may put you at risk. Unauthorized modification of the equipment is not permitted and voids your warranty.
Caution: Federal (US) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
Risks and Side Effects
The glucose alerts and notifications will not audibly notify the user when the sound on the mobile device is turned off. If the system cannot display a glucose value, it also cannot provide glucose alerts. If you are unable to feel the vibration of the smart transmitter you may not notice the alerts. You may need medical attention in the event that you have high or low glucose and are unaware of it.
IMPORTANT: If you do not test your glucose with a blood glucose meter when your symptoms are not consistent with the sensor glucose readings, you may miss a high or low glucose event.
Treatment decisions should be made based on a review of the following: a sensor glucose value, trend arrow, recent glucose trend graph, and system alerts/notifications. You should not make a treatment decision unless you have considered all this information.
Be sure you talk with your health care provider about insulin action, so you understand how its impact on your glucose may factor into your treatment decisions.
The sensor is inserted by making a small incision and placing it under the skin. This process may cause infection, pain or skin irritation. Additionally, the adhesive may cause a reaction or skin irritation.

Eversense CGM User Guide
Warnings
•
The Eversense CGM System has not been tested using insertion sites other than the upper arm.
•
If at any time your symptoms are not consistent with the sensor glucose readings, you should test your glucose with a blood glucose meter.
• Before making a treatment decision, you should take into account the sensor glucose value, the trend graph, the trend arrow and any alerts from the Eversense CGM System. If no trend arrow is displayed, the system does not have enough data to display direction and rate of change. You should not make a treatment decision based solely on the sensor glucose value.
• If your smart transmitter is damaged or cracked, DO NOT use, as this could create an electrical safety hazard or malfunction, and could result in electrical shock.
•
Close contact with direct EMI may interfere with the smart transmitter’s ability to send data to your mobile device. Move away from the source of EMI and check that your mobile device is connected to your smart transmitter.
•
Antibiotics of the tetracycline class may falsely lower sensor glucose readings. You should not rely on sensor glucose readings while taking tetracyclines.
• The bandage should remain covering the incision for 48 hours as this is a standard of care to allow formation of a water-tight seal to help protect against infection. Until it has healed, always cover the insertion site with a sterile bandage before placing the smart transmitter adhesive over the sensor. Failure to do so could result in infection at the insertion site.
•
Please review this User Guide with your health care provider. For additional Eversense product questions and troubleshooting issues, contact Customer Support toll free in the US at 844-SENSE4U (844-736-7348).
• Always calibrate the system using only a fingerstick blood sample. DO NOT use an alternative site (such as forearm or palm) blood glucose reading to calibrate the system.
2
Eversense CGM User Guide

Warnings (continued)
•
DO NOT insert your infusion set or inject insulin within 4 in (10.16 cm) of the sensor site. If the insulin delivery site is within 4 in (10.16 cm) of the sensor site, it may interfere with sensor glucose readings and can cause inaccurate glucose readings.
•
Always follow your health care provider’s instructions for care after the sensor insertion or removal. Contact your health care provider if any of the following events occur:
– You have pain, redness, or swelling at the incision site(s) later than 5 days after the sensor insertion or removal.
•
If your sensor glucose is very low (below 40 mg/dL) or very high (above 400 mg/dL), you should perform a fingerstick blood glucose test prior to making a treatment decision.
• The Eversense CGM System requires calibration in order to provide accurate readings. You should not use CGM readings to make treatment decisions unless you have followed the instructions for daily calibration.
•
The Eversense CGM System will not provide readings during the 24 hour Warm-Up Phase and until a second calibration is successful during the Initialization Phase. During this time, you should monitor your glucose using a home blood glucose monitor.
• Certain conditions and alerts will prevent glucose data from being displayed. During these times, you should use a home blood glucose monitor to make treatment decisions. You should carefully read the Alerts and
Notifications section of their Eversense CGM System User Guide to understand these conditions.
• The glucose alerts and notifications will not audibly notify you when the sound on your mobile device is turned off. If the system cannot display a glucose value, it also cannot provide glucose alerts. If you are unable to feel the vibration of the smart transmitter you may not notice the alerts.
• When the smart transmitter is not worn over the sensor, such as during charging, the Eversense CGM System will not provide alerts and notifications on the mobile device or through vibration alerts from the smart transmitter.
18
Eversense CGM User Guide
Precautions
•
DO NOT exchange smart transmitters with another person. Each smart transmitter can be linked to only one sensor at a time. The system is to be used by one person in the home environment.
• The following medical therapies or procedures may cause permanent damage to the sensor particularly if used in close proximity to the device:
– Lithotripsy – The use of lithotripsy is not recommended for people who have an inserted sensor because the effects are unknown.
– Diathermy – DO NOT use diathermy on people who have an inserted sensor. Energy from the diathermy can transfer through the sensor and cause tissue damage in the insertion area.
– Electrocautery – The use of electrocautery near the inserted sensor may damage the device. DO NOT use electrocautery near the sensor.
• Steroid use – It has not been determined whether the risks usually associated with injectable dexamethasone acetate apply to the use of this dexamethasone acetate elution ring, a highly localized, controlled-release device. The dexamethasone acetate ring could cause other adverse events not listed or previously seen.
• DO NOT wear the smart transmitter during medical x-rays or computed tomography (CT) scans. To avoid interference with results, remove the smart transmitter before undergoing medical x-ray or CT scans. Make sure your health care provider knows about your smart transmitter.
•
The sensor and smart transmitter should be linked the day of insertion. Failure to link the sensor and smart transmitter could result in a delay in receiving glucose readings.
• If the sensor, insertion site or smart transmitter feels warm, remove the smart transmitter immediately and contact your health care provider for further advice. A warm sensor could mean there is an infection or a sensor malfunction.
•
DO NOT attempt to use the Eversense App while operating a motor vehicle.
• You should not receive massage therapy near the inserted sensor site. Massage therapy near the sensor site could cause discomfort or skin irritation.

Precautions (continued)
• Use only the AC power adapter and USB cable provided with the smart transmitter when charging the smart transmitter battery. Use of another power supply could damage the smart transmitter, not allowing glucose readings to be received properly, and could result in voiding your warranty.
• If you have any concerns about allergic reaction to adhesive products containing silicone, contact your health care provider prior to use. Discard the Eversense adhesive patch after each use of up to 24 hours.
• DO NOT change the unit of measurement unless you have discussed it with your health care provider. Using the incorrect unit of measure could result in missing a high or low glucose event.
•
Entering incorrect blood glucose values for calibration can result in inaccurate sensor glucose readings, which may result in you missing a high or low glucose event.
• Follow your health care provider’s recommendation for setting your glucose alerts. Incorrectly setting your glucose alerts can result in you missing a high or low glucose event.
• Pay attention to the glucose alerts the system provides. Failure to appropriately respond to an alert might result in you missing a high or low glucose event.
• The Eversense NOW Remote Monitoring App does not replace the monitoring regimen as directed by your health care provider.
• The Eversense CGM System has not been tested in the following populations: women who are pregnant or nursing, people under the age of 18, critically ill or hospitalized patients, people receiving immunosuppressant therapy, chemotherapy or anti-coagulant therapy, those with another active implantable device, e.g., an implantable defibrillator (passive implants are allowed, e.g., cardiac stents), those with known allergies to or using systemic glucocorticoids (excluding topical, optical or nasal, but including inhaled). The system’s accuracy hasn’t been tested in these populations, and sensor glucose readings may be inaccurate, resulting in missing a severe low or high glucose event.
• The Apple Watch is a secondary display of Eversense CGM data and should not be used in place of the primary Eversense CGM display.

6. Calibrating the System
This section describes the calibration procedure and schedule of your Eversense CGM System.
Warning: DO NOT use alternative test sites such as your forearm when entering BG values for calibration.
To ensure best performance, routine calibration is required using fingerstick readings from a blood glucose meter.
Any commercially available meter may be used for calibration. Once your sensor has been inserted and linked to your smart transmitter, the system begins a 24-hour Warm-Up Phase. No calibration is required during this phase.
There are two calibration phases:
Initialization Phase – After the 24-hour Warm-Up Phase, you must complete 4 fingerstick calibration tests, spaced 2 to 12 hours apart.
Daily Calibration Phase – After the Initialization Phase, you must complete a fingerstick calibration test every
12 hours.
Warning: In the Daily Calibration Phase, the Eversense CGM System requires calibration every 12 hours in order to provide accurate readings. You should not use CGM readings to make treatment decisions unless you have followed the instructions for daily calibration.
6
Eversense CGM User Guide

Routine calibration is critically important to ensuring the best performance of the Eversense CGM System.
The following tips can help you improve your calibration measurements:
Tips for ensuring good calibration:
Calibrate at times when glucose is NOT changing rapidly (e.g., before meals, before dosing insulin).
Calibrate when you know you will not be removing the smart transmitter during the next 15 minutes.
Wash your hands with warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly before taking a blood glucose meter reading. It is very important to have clean, dry hands when you test your blood glucose.
Always follow the blood glucose meter manufacturer’s instructions to get accurate blood glucose readings for calibration.
Be sure the code on test strip vial matches the code on your blood glucose meter (if coding is required).
Calibration will NOT be complete or results NOT accepted if:
Blood glucose meter reading is less than 40 mg/dL.
Blood glucose meter reading is greater than 400 mg/dL.
Blood glucose meter reading was taken more than 10 minutes before entering the result in the Eversense App.
Sensor glucose reading is significantly different than the blood glucose meter reading.
Your smart transmitter was removed or could not collect sensor glucose data during the 15 minutes after you entered your calibration value.
44
Eversense CGM User Guide
Calibration Phases
A. Initialization Phase (after 24-hour Warm-Up Phase)
During this phase, 4 fingerstick blood glucose meter tests are required.
• The 4 calibration tests must be spaced 2 to 12 hours apart, and all 4 tests must be completed within a 36 hour period. After 8 hours without a calibration entry, no glucose data will be displayed.
– 1 st calibration = 24 hours after sensor insertion.
– 2 nd calibration = 2 to 12 hours after 1st successful calibration.
– 3 rd calibration = 2 to 12 hours after 2nd successful calibration.
– 4 th calibration = 2 to 12 hours after 3rd successful calibration.
•
Glucose readings will start displaying in the app a few minutes after the 2nd calibration is successfully completed.
IMPORTANT: If your smart transmitter is not turned on and paired with the Eversense App and sensor, the system is not able to prompt you to calibrate.
Re-Entering Initialization Phase
The following will cause the system to re-enter Initialization Phase.
• Not completing a calibration test within a 12-hour period during the Initialization Phase.
• Not completing all 4 calibration tests within 36 hours during the Initialization Phase.
• Not completing 2 calibration tests within a 24-hour period during the Daily Calibration Phase
(see B. Daily Calibration Phase ).
• When the last several blood glucose meter measurements are significantly different than the sensor glucose values.
• If the smart transmitter is out of battery power for more than 16 hours.
•
When you receive a Sensor Check Alert.
• Six hours after you receive a Sensor Suspend Alert.

B. Daily Calibration Phase
The Daily Calibration Phase requires a blood glucose meter test every 12 hours. The first Daily Calibration Phase will begin after successful completion of the Initialization Phase.
•
12 hours after your last successful calibration, the system prompts you to calibrate.
• You may optionally enter calibrations more frequently. Daily calibration entries must be spaced at least one hour apart.
• If you do not calibrate within 16 hours, you will receive a Calibration Past Due Alert and no glucose values will be displayed until a calibration value is entered. After 24 hours without a calibration value entered, you will receive a
Calibration Expired Alert and the system returns to Initialization Phase.
Warning: Certain conditions and alerts will prevent glucose data from being displayed. During these times, you should use a home blood glucose monitor to make treatment decisions. You should carefully read the
Alerts and Notifications section of this User Guide to understand these conditions.

There are 5 different trend arrows that show the current direction of your glucose levels, and how fast they are changing.
Gradually rising or falling glucose levels, falling or rising at a rate between 0.0 mg/dL and 1.0 mg/dL per minute.
Moderately rising glucose level, rising at a rate between 1.0 mg/dL and 2.0 mg/dL per minute.
Moderately falling glucose levels, falling at a rate between 1.0 mg/dL and 2.0 mg/dL per minute.
Very rapidly rising glucose levels, rising at a rate more than 2.0 mg/dL per minute.
Very rapidly falling glucose levels, falling at a rate more than 2.0 mg/dL per minute.
The app uses the last 20 minutes of continuous glucose data for calculating glucose trends.
When there are not enough sensor values available to calculate a trend arrow, it is not displayed and the glucose value is grey instead of black.
Before making a treatment decision, you should take into account the sensor glucose value, the trend graph, the trend arrow and any alerts from the Eversense CGM System. If no trend arrow is displayed, the system does not have enough data to display direction and rate of change. You should not make a treatment decision based solely on the sensor glucose value.
56
Eversense CGM User Guide
Understanding Treatment Decisions with CGM
Read the entire Eversense CGM System User Guide and be sure you are familiar with when you should and should not make treatment decisions based on your CGM information. Before you begin using Eversense to make treatment decisions, talk with your health care provider about understanding how food, insulin, medications, stress, and exercise impact your glucose.
IMPORTANT:
• If your symptoms do not match the sensor glucose information displayed, or the app is not displaying both a
• number and a trend arrow, then use your BG meter to make treatment decisions.
Use your blood glucose meter to make treatment decisions until you understand how Eversense works for you.
It may take days, weeks, or even months for you to be comfortable using your CGM data to make treatment decisions.
Take your time and follow your health care provider’s recommendation for when to use Eversense instead of your
BG meter.
7
Sensor Glucose and Blood Glucose
Sensor glucose is measured in the interstitial fluid, not in blood. Because of this, sensor glucose values may lag behind blood glucose values. For example, when your CGM trend arrow shows rapidly falling glucose, your blood glucose may be lower than the number shown; or when your CGM trend arrow shows a rapid rise, your blood glucose may be higher than the number shown. These examples are more likely when your glucose is changing rapidly, such as after a meal, after dosing insulin, or during and after exercise. Stress, illness, and even some medications you take can also impact your glucose. Sometimes the right treatment decision is to wait and check your CGM data frequently before taking action.
Eversense CGM User Guide
57
7
Early Wear Time
During the 24-hour Warm up Phase, glucose values are not displayed. Also, during early wear time as your insertion site heals, your sensor glucose values may not match your blood glucose values as closely as they will when healing is complete. Use your BG meter to make treatment decisions during the Warm up Phase and until you are confident with your CGM values. Always remember, if the way you feel does not match the glucose value and trend arrow, use your BG meter.
Bluetooth Communication
The smart transmitter communicates wirelessly with your mobile device via Bluetooth to display your glucose reading. If the connection between your smart transmitter and your mobile device is interrupted, you will not see a glucose value or a trend arrow. Use your BG meter to make treatment decisions if your smart transmitter is not communicating with your mobile device.
On-body Vibe Alert
Your smart transmitter provides vibratory alerts when you have passed the glucose alert levels you set. However, do not use on-body vibe alerts to make treatment decisions. When you receive an on-body vibe alert, check your glucose reading and trend arrow on your Eversense app.
Remote Monitoring with Eversense NOW
Treatment decisions must not be made based on CGM information displayed on the Eversense NOW Remote
Monitoring Mobile App. Remote monitoring relies on data being sent from your mobile device through the Eversense cloud and then to the Eversense NOW app. Interruptions in any of these connections will delay data being displayed in Eversense NOW. Only the CGM information sent directly from the smart transmitter to your mobile device can be used to make treatment decisions.
58
Eversense CGM User Guide
Discuss with Your Health Care Provider
Meals
Different types of meals and foods can impact your glucose levels and trend arrows in different ways, as can conditions such as delayed gastric emptying. Some foods will raise your glucose more rapidly than others. Before using CGM data to make treatment decisions, discuss with your health care provider about how to manage insulin dosing for different types of food, and how to accurately calculate carbohydrates.
Insulin
Insulin does not instantly impact your glucose. For example, depending on the brand of rapid-acting insulin used, onset of action can be from 5 to 15 minutes, peak effect in 1-2 hours and duration of action of 4-6 hours. Be sure to understand when you can expect the insulin you take to start lowering your glucose, when its maximum effectiveness is, and how long it lasts in your body continuing to lower your glucose. Working with your health care provider to understand the onset, peak, and duration of your insulin action will help you avoid stacking insulin. Stacking insulin is when you take a dose of insulin while a previous dose is still working at lowering your glucose. Hypoglycemia, sometimes severe, can result. Rather than reacting and taking insulin based on a high CGM value, be sure to consider whether insulin from your most recent dose is still actively lowering your glucose.
Exercise
Even relatively mild exercise, if it is not part of your normal routine, may cause your glucose to change more rapidly than usual. If your symptoms do not match your CGM value, or if your CGM value and trend arrow are not what you expect, use your BG meter to make treatment decisions. Some people experience delayed-onset hypoglycemia hours after exercise. You should follow your health care provider’s recommendation on dosing insulin following exercise to avoid low glucose.

Illness & Stress
When you are ill or stressed, your glucose is impacted, and this may be a consideration for making treatment decisions. Keep in mind that stress is not always negative. You could find your glucose levels changing while headed on vacation or going to a fun social event. Your health care provider can help you create a plan for treatment decisions when you are sick or in stressful situations.
Medications
Understand how the medications you take impact your glucose. Some diabetes medications work to decrease your glucose, and some medications, like steroids, may increase your glucose levels. With Eversense, medications of the
Tetracycline class may falsely lower glucose and you should not rely on CGM readings when taking drugs in this class.
Talk with your health care provider about the medications you take and what to consider about them when making treatment decisions.
Eversense Glucose Alerts
Your health care provider will help you determine the target range and glucose alert levels that are right for you. Pay careful attention to your Eversense glucose alerts – you may need to make a treatment decision. When you receive an Out of Range Glucose Alert, the sensor glucose value is below 40 mg/dL with LO displayed instead of a number, or above 400 mg/dL with HI displayed instead of a number. Ask your health care provider about how treating very low and very high glucose may be different from the way you otherwise treat, and always use your BG meter to make a treatment decision.
Look Ahead
Carefully consider the time of day when making CGM treatment decisions, just like you do when using your BG meter.
For example, if your glucose is high and rising just before bedtime, adjust your insulin dose according to your health care provider’s recommendation. Also think about how to treat if you are planning to exercise or will be sitting in a meeting all day. Your health care provider may recommend adjusting your treatment decision based on what is about to happen in order to avoid high or low glucose.

Eversense Trend Arrows and Treatment Decisions
Eversense trend arrows show the direction and rate of change of your glucose to give you an idea of where your glucose is headed. Talk with your health care provider about using trend arrows to help you make treatment decisions. Generally, if the arrow is going down, you may consider taking less insulin, and if the trend arrow is going up, you may take more. Be careful not to take too much insulin in a short time, as that could result in low glucose from stacking insulin. The Eversense arrows are listed below, along with how you may use them when considering treatment. Talk with your health care provider about making adjustments to treatment based on trend arrows.
Never make a treatment decision using CGM if there is no arrow displayed.

Trend Graph
The trend graph is used to review and analyze historical data and trends in your glucose values over time. It also displays marks for events you have manually logged in the app (e.g., calibration tests and exercise).
There are several ways you can use the trend graph:
• Quickly review how well you are doing when compared to the glucose targets and alert levels you set. The red dashed lines indicate your High and Low Glucose Alert levels, and the green dashed lines indicate your high and low glucose target levels (your target range).
• Shaded areas of the graph are color coded as follows depending on the glucose settings you enter:
– Glucose values that are outside of your glucose alert levels will be red.
– Glucose values that are within your glucose target levels will be green.
– Glucose values that are between your glucose target and alert levels will be yellow.
• Press and hold any point in the line graph to view a specific glucose reading for that point in time.
• Tap any of the marks on the app screen to get more information about the event or alert.
•
Pinch in and out on the screen to display different day/time ranges on the trend graph. You can zoom in and out to display as few as 3 hours or up to
3 days of information.
• To view trend graph data for a different date, tap the date on the screen and enter the desired date.
• You can view the trend graph in either portrait or landscape mode. In landscape mode, there are shortcut buttons to see 7, 14, 30 and 90 day views.
Note: All of your glucose data will be stored in the app as long as you have memory available on your mobile device.

Glucose Levels
The Eversense CGM System is designed to provide alerts on your smart transmitter and mobile device when your glucose level has reached the alert levels you set. You will decide the settings for your glucose alerts, targets, and rates of change based on input from your health care provider.
Warning: The Low and High Glucose Alerts are designed to assist you in managing your diabetes and should not be exclusively used to detect hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. The alerts should always be used in conjunction with other indications of glycemic state such as your glucose level, trend, line graph etc.
72
Eversense CGM User Guide
IMPORTANT:
• Low and High Glucose Alerts are different from your Low and High Glucose Targets.
– Low and High Glucose Alerts notify you on your mobile device and smart transmitter when you have reached a certain low or high value.
– Glucose Targets are used in the reports and line graphs to show how your glucose levels have been performing compared to the targets you set. You will not receive an alert when you have reached your
Glucose Target levels.
– Predictive Low and High Glucose alerts notify you on your mobile device and smart transmitter when your glucose is likely to reach the Low and High Glucose Alert levels you have set.

Remote Monitoring with Eversense CGM System and
Eversense NOW App
The Eversense CGM App includes an optional remote monitoring feature. The Eversense CGM App interacts with the
Eversense NOW Remote Glucose Monitoring App to allow other people to view your data.
Risks
There may be times when glucose data cannot be sent to the Eversense NOW App. lf a member of your Circle is not receiving glucose data from your Eversense CGM System, they cannot assist you in the event of a high or low glucose value. The secondary display and notifications on the Eversense NOW Mobile App are not a replacement for the primary display on your Eversense CGM System Mobile App.
Members of your Circle may not always have a connection to support data transfer such as internet/wifi or 3G/4G/LTE.
If you or a member of your Circle does not have an internet connection, your glucose data will not be available for viewing on a secondary display. Any problems with mobile devices, wireless internet, data connection, the Eversense
Data Management System (DMS) System, having your smart transmitter out of range of your mobile device, or charging your smart transmitter may prevent data from being displayed to members of your Circle. You should not rely on people remotely monitoring your glucose data to assist you in the event of a high or low glucose event.
The remote monitoring feature provides a secondary display of notifications and data to those in your Circle. It is not a real-time remote monitoring system.
Benefits
The Eversense CGM System used with the Eversense NOW Remote Monitoring App may provide CGM users with additional confidence, knowing that others can also view their CGM data.

16. About the Sensor
This section describes the Eversense Sensor and how it is inserted by your health care provider.
The Eversense Sensor is a miniaturized fluorometer that uses fluorescent intensity to measure glucose in interstitial fluid. The sensor is implanted subcutaneously (under the skin) on the upper arm, leaving no part of the sensor protruding from the skin. The sensor remains in place and provides
CGM measurements for up to 90 days.
The sensor is encased in a biocompatible material and utilizes a unique fluorescent, glucose indicating polymer. A light emitting diode embedded in the sensor excites the polymer, and the polymer then rapidly signals changes in glucose concentration via a change in light output. The measurement is then relayed to the smart transmitter. Measurements are completed automatically and require no action by the user.
The sensor is approximately 3.5 mm x 18.3 mm and has a silicone ring that contains a small amount of dexamethasone acetate, an anti-inflammatory steroid drug. The dexamethasone acetate minimizes inflammatory responses, very similar to common medical devices, such as pacemakers.

Insertion Steps
Your health care provider will explain and perform the simple and quick steps to insert the sensor. You will be fully awake during the approximately 5-minute insertion procedure.
Insertion site:
It is important to choose a site that is comfortable for you to wear the sensor and smart transmitter for the entire
90 day period. It is recommended to have the sensor inserted toward the back of the upper arm. Placement in this area minimizes the chance of the sensor and smart transmitter being bumped by doorways, walls or other narrow passages. If possible, avoid areas with loose skin, scars, tattoos, nevus, or blood vessels that could be incised during the procedure. It is recommended to alternate arms for subsequent insertion sites.
Step 1:
Site preparation – the insertion site will be cleaned, disinfected, then anesthetized using lidocaine.
Step 2:
Incision – a small (less than 1 centimeter) incision will be made at the insertion site.
Step 3:
Sensor insertion – a subcutaneous pocket will be created under the skin and the sensor will be inserted in this pocket.
Step 4:
Site closure – the incision will be closed with an adhesive bandage. Steri Strips™ are typically used to close the incision.
Step 5:
Sensor and smart transmitter linking – link the sensor and smart transmitter to begin the 24-hour
Warm-Up Phase.
Note: After insertion, link the smart transmitter and the sensor and then allow the incision site to heal 24 hours before replacing the transmitter .
The sensor requires 24 hours to stabilize within the insertion site, this period is known as the Warm-up Phase. After the first 24 hours of sensor insertion, position and secure the smart transmitter over the sensor and ensure you have a connection. (See Secure the Smart Transmitter over Inserted Sensor.
) Then you can perform your Initialization Phase calibration of 4 fingerstick blood glucose tests to start getting glucose readings.

Removal Steps
Similarly to the insertion steps, your health care provider will explain the simple and quick steps for the sensor removal and you will be fully awake during the 5-minute (approximate) removal process.
Step 1:
Site preparation – the sensor site will be cleaned, disinfected, then anesthetized using lidocaine.
Step 2:
Incision – a small (less than 1 centimeter) incision will be made at the sensor site.
Step 3:
Sensor removal – the sensor will be removed and discarded.
Step 4:
Site closure – once removed, the incision will be closed with a Steri Strips™ (sutures may be used depending on provider’s preference).

Eversense CGM User Guide
Glucose Readings
Q. Why is my sensor reading different from my blood glucose meter reading?
A: The Eversense CGM System measures glucose in interstitial fluid (ISF) between the body’s cells.
Physiologic differences between ISF and blood from a fingerstick may result in differences in glucose measurements. These differences are especially evident during times of rapid change in blood glucose (e.g., after eating, dosing insulin, or exercising), and for some people, during the first several days after insertion due to inflammation that may result from the insertion procedure. On average, glucose levels in ISF lag behind glucose levels in blood by several minutes. Until you are aware of what these differences are, confirm sensor readings with a fingerstick blood glucose check. Also, if your symptoms do not match the sensor glucose readings, you should confirm with a fingerstick blood glucose check.
Q: I am getting “-- -- --” in place of sensor glucose readings on the app.
A: You may not get any sensor glucose readings when there is no connection between your smart transmitter and your sensor or smart transmitter and mobile device.
You may also not get any readings when one of the alerts below is activated:
• No sensor detected.
• Out of Range High or Out of Range Low Glucose
Sensor reading.
• Low Sensor Temperature.
• High Ambient Light.
•
Sensor Check.
• High Smart Transmitter Temperature.
• High Sensor Temperature.
• Empty Battery.
•

Making Treatment Decisions
Q: What information should be considered before I make a treatment decision?
A: Before making a treatment decision, you should take into account the sensor glucose value, the trend graph, the trend arrow and any alerts from the
Eversense CGM System. If no trend arrow is displayed, the system does not have enough data to display direction and rate of change. You should not make a treatment decision based solely on the sensor glucose value.
Q: When should I do a fingerstick test with a blood glucose meter?
A: You should perform a blood glucose test on a meter:
• When it is time to calibrate.
• No glucose value is displayed.
• No trend arrow is displayed.
•
Your symptoms do not match the glucose information displayed.
• The current sensor glucose value is displayed in grey.
• The status bar is displayed in orange.
• You are taking medications of the tetracycline class.
Q: Why is my glucose value grey?
A: When the system does not have enough data to provide a trend arrow, the sensor glucose value may be displayed in grey. You should not make a treatment decision based solely on the sensor glucose value.

162
Eversense CGM User Guide
Trend Arrows
Q: My trend arrows and glucose alerts do not match.
A: Trend arrows indicate the rate and direction of change in glucose levels. For example, you may have a trend arrow that points up or down (indicating slow or rapid changes). Glucose alerts notify you when your current glucose level reaches the alert level you set, regardless of the rate or direction of change.
Q: My trend arrow is missing.
A: The CGM System uses the last 20 minutes of continuous glucose data for calculating and displaying the trend arrow. When there are not enough sensor values available for the calculation, the arrow is not displayed. You should not make treatment decisions unless you see a glucose value, a trend arrow, and consider recent trends and alerts.

PRECISE II Study
PRECISE II was a multi-site, non-randomized single-arm pivotal clinical study. Ninety (90) adults (18 years and older) with type 1 or type 2 diabetes participated in the study across 8 sites in the U.S. Each had a sensor inserted in the upper arm to collect glucose data but not be displayed to the subject. Some participants had a sensor inserted into each arm for clinical data collection. Participants interacted with the system to calibrate and address notifications not related to glucose data. Accuracy was measured during day-long clinic visits, with blood taken about every
15 minutes. These visits occurred on Days 1, 30, 60, and 90. At each visit, sensor accuracy was evaluated relative to a standard laboratory analyzer known as the YSI. Glucose readings were compared at the same moment in time between the reference analyzer and the continuous device. A safety follow-up visit occurred at Day 100, or ten days after the sensor was removed.
PRECISION Study
PRECISION was a second non-randomized single-arm pivotal clinical study conducted in the U.S. in 3 sites.
Thirty-five (35) adults (18 years and older) with type 1 or type 2 diabetes participated in the study which was similar in study design as PRECISE II, except glucose readings and high/low glucose alerts were not blinded to the participants, and study visits on days 7 and 14 were added. The table below characterizes accuracy of the system by assessing the sensor glucose values against the YSI reference values.

Eversense Accuracy to YSI in PRECISION Study
Accuracy was measured by comparing the Eversense sensor glucose values to YSI blood glucose values. For blood glucose values less than or equal to 80 mg/dL, the mean absolute difference between the two results was calculated.
For values greater than 80 mg/dL, the mean absolute relative difference was calculated.

Performance was also measured by calculating the percentage of sensor glucose readings within 15 mg/dL or 15% of the YSI reference. These tables show the percent agreement at multiple levels, at different glucose ranges, and at different days during the sensor wear. Results in the glucose ranges of 80 mg/dL or less reflect the percentage of values within mg/dL, and results in the glucose ranges over 80 mg/dL reflect the percentage within reference. As an example, glucose values between 40 and 60 mg/dL were within 15 mg/dL of the reference value 91.9% of the time.

Eversense Alert Performance
The tables in this section show an alert performance assessment. The Confirmed Event Detection Rate shows the percentage of time the Eversense CGM System confirmed the reference value by presenting an alert within a 15 minute window of a reference value beyond the alert setting threshold. The Missed Detection Rate shows the percentage of time the Eversense CGM System did not present an alert within a 15 minute window of a reference value beyond the alert setting threshold. The True Alert Rate shows the percentage of time the alert from the CGM system was confirmed by a reference value within a 15 minute window of the alert being presented. The False Alert Rate shows the percentage of time the alert from the CGM system was not confirmed by a reference value within a 15 minute window of the alert being presented.

Sensor Life
Sensor life measured the percentage of sensors being able to function through the intended 90 day durations of each study. In the PRECISE II study, nine sensors did not function through the 90 day period. Function stopped at days
10, 30, 53, 67, 70, 80, 81, 83, and 85. The sensor failure on day 10 was due to a software anomaly that has since been resolved. Overall, the analysis estimated that 91% of sensors remained functioning through 90 days. In the PRECISION study, all sensors functioned through 90 days.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with following symbol:
Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people. a. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Eversense
CGM System is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Eversense CGM System should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Eversense CGM
System. b. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 10 V/m.
