Do not ignore symptoms that may be due to low or high blood glucose: If you are experiencing symptoms that are not consistent with your glucose readings, consult your health care professional. Use your blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions when you see the symbol during the first 12 hours of wearing a Sensor, if your Sensor glucose reading does not match how you feel, or if the reading does not include a number. Choking hazard: The System contains small parts that may be dangerous if swallowed. Cautions and Limitations Below are important cautions and limitations to keep in mind so you can use the System safely. They are grouped into categories for easy reference. What to know about Glucose Alarms:
For you to receive alarms, they must be on and your Reader should be within 20 feet of you at all times. The transmission range is 20 feet unobstructed. If you are out of range, you may not receive glucose alarms. To prevent missed alarms, make sure the Reader has sufficient charge and that sound and/or vibration are turned on. Alarms you receive do not include your glucose reading so you must scan your Sensor to check your glucose. What to know before using the System:
Review all product information before use. Take standard precautions for transmission of blood borne pathogens to avoid contamination. Make sure that your Reader and Sensor kits are kept in a safe place, under your control. This is important to help prevent anyone from accessing or tampering with the System. Who should not use the System:
Do not use the System in people less than 4 years of age. The System is not cleared for use in people under 4 years of age. Do not use the System if you are pregnant, on dialysis, or critically ill. The System is not cleared for use in these groups and it is not known how different conditions or medications common to these populations may affect performance of the System. Performance of the System when used with other implanted medical devices, such as pacemakers, has not been evaluated. 3 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 3-4 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 3-4 4 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM What should you know about wearing a Sensor:
Wash application site on the back of your upper arm using a plain soap, dry, and then clean with an alcohol wipe. This will help remove any oily residue that may prevent the Sensor from sticking properly. Allow site to air dry before proceeding. Carefully preparing the site according to these instructions will help the Sensor stay on your body for the full 14 day wear period and help prevent it from falling off early. The Sensor can be worn for up to 14 days. Remember to always have your next Sensor available before your current one ends so you can keep getting your glucose readings. You must scan the Sensor to get your real-time current glucose level as the Reader will not provide this information without a scan. In the event that your Sensor stops working and you do not have another Sensor readily available, you must use an alternate method to measure your glucose levels and inform your treatment decisions. The System is designed to detect certain conditions which may occur where the Sensor is not working as intended and shut it off, telling you to replace your Sensor. This may occur if the Sensor gets knocked off from the skin or if the System detects that the Sensor may not be performing as intended. Contact Customer Service if you receive a Replace Sensor message before the end of the 14 day wear period. Customer Service is available at 1-855-632-8658 7 Days a Week from 8AM to 8PM Eastern Standard Time. Some individuals may be sensitive to the adhesive that keeps the Sensor attached to the skin. If you notice significant skin irritation around or under your Sensor, remove the Sensor and stop using the System. Contact your health care professional before continuing to use the System. Intense exercise may cause your Sensor to loosen due to sweat or movement of the Sensor. If the Sensor is becoming loose or if the Sensor tip is coming out of your skin, you may get no readings or unreliable low readings. Remove and replace your Sensor if it starts to loosen and follow the instructions to select an appropriate application site. Do not attempt to reinsert the Sensor. Contact Customer Service if your Sensor becomes loose or falls off before the end of the wear period. Customer Service is available at 1-855-632-8658 7 Days a Week from 8AM to 8PM Eastern Standard Time. Do not reuse Sensors. The Sensor and Sensor Applicator are designed for single use. Reuse may result in no glucose readings and infection. 5 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 5-6 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 5-6 6 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Not suitable for re-sterilization. Further exposure to irradiation may cause unreliable low results. If a Sensor breaks inside your body, call your health care professional. How to Store the Sensor Kit:
Store the Sensor Kit between 36F and 82F. Storage outside of this range may cause inaccurate Sensor glucose readings. If you suspect that the temperature may exceed 82F (for example, in an un-airconditioned home in summer), you should refrigerate your Sensor Kit. Do not freeze your Sensor Kit. Store your Sensor Kit in a cool, dry place. Do not store your Sensor Kit in a parked car on a hot day. Store the Sensor Kit between 10-90% non-condensing humidity. When not to use the System:

If placed in other areas, the Sensor may not function properly. Select an appropriate Sensor site to help the Sensor stay attached to the body and prevent discomfort or skin irritation. Avoid areas with scars, moles, stretch marks, or lumps. Select an area of skin that generally stays flat during normal daily activities (no bending or folding). Choose a site that is at least 1 inch away from an insulin injection site. When is Sensor Glucose different from Blood Glucose:
Physiological differences between the interstitial fluid and capillary blood may result in differences in glucose readings between the System and results from a fingerstick test using a blood glucose meter. Differences in glucose readings between interstitial fluid and capillary blood may be observed during times of rapid change in blood glucose, such as after eating, dosing insulin, or exercising. What to know about X-Rays:
The Sensor should be removed prior to exposing it to an X-ray machine. The effect of X-rays on the performance of the System has not been evaluated. The exposure may damage the Sensor and may impact proper function of the device to detect trends and track patterns in glucose values during the wear period. When to remove the Sensor:
If the Sensor is becoming loose or if the Sensor tip is coming out of your skin, you may get no readings or unreliable readings, which may not match how you feel. Check to make sure your Sensor has not come loose. If it has come loose, remove it, apply a new one, and contact Customer Service. If you believe your glucose readings are not correct or are inconsistent with how you feel, perform a blood glucose test on your finger to confirm your glucose. If the problem continues, remove the current Sensor, apply a new one, and contact Customer Service. Customer Service is available at 1-855-632-8658 7 Days a Week from 8AM to 8PM Eastern Standard Time. 9 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 9-10 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 9-10 10 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Interfering Substances Taking ascorbic acid (vitamin C) supplements while wearing the Sensor may falsely raise Sensor glucose readings. Taking more than 500 mg of ascorbic acid per day may affect the Sensor readings which could cause you to miss a severe low glucose event. Ascorbic acid can be found in supplements including multivitamins. Some supplements, including cold remedies such as Airborne and Emergen-C, may contain high doses of 1000 mg of ascorbic acid and should not be taken while using the Sensor. See your health care professional to understand how long ascorbic acid is active in your body. What to know about the Readers Built-in Meter:

You should also talk to your health care professional about the best times to scan your Sensor. Consider scanning your Sensor before a period when you will not be monitoring your glucose, such as before driving, exercise or sleeping. WARNING: The System can replace blood glucose testing except in the below situations. These are the times when you need to do a blood glucose test before deciding what to do or what treatment decision to make as Sensor readings may not accurately reflect blood glucose levels:
Do a blood glucose test if you think your glucose readings are not correct or do not match how you feel. Do not ignore symptoms that may be due to low or high glucose. Do a blood glucose test when you see the symbol during the first 12 hours of wearing a Sensor or the Sensor glucose reading does not include a Current Glucose number. 37 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 37-38 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 37-38 Making Treatment Decisions Getting Started Before you start using the System for treatment decisions, make sure you have a good understanding of how the System works for your body. Continue to use your blood glucose meter for treatment decisions until you are comfortable with the information you receive from your System. This includes understanding that: Sensor performance can vary in between Sensors, within a Sensor wear period (up to 14 days), and in different situations. There may be variations between Sensors during the first 12 hours after insertion, so pay attention to how each newly inserted Sensor is working for you when deciding whether to make treatment decisions based on your Sensor readings. Getting familiar with the System could take days, weeks, or even months. The more you check readings from the System with a blood glucose meter, the better you will understand how the System works for you. Work with your health care professional to put together a plan for managing your diabetes that includes when to use the System information for making treatment decisions. Helpful Tips Confirm your Sensor glucose readings with a blood glucose meter until you understand:
Sensor accuracy may vary between Sensors. Sensor accuracy may vary during a Sensor wear session. Sensor accuracy may vary in different situations (meals, exercise, first day of use, etc.). 38 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Scan your Sensor often to see how carbs, medication, exercise, illness, or stress levels impact your Sensor glucose readings. The information you get can help you figure out why your glucose sometimes goes too high or too low, and how to prevent it from doing so in the future. Talk to your health care professional about how your insulin works. The more you understand about your insulin, including how long it takes to start working and how long it lasts in your body, the more likely you will be to make better treatment decisions. Making a treatment decision doesnt just mean taking insulin. Treatment decisions can also include things like taking fast-acting carbs, eating, or even doing nothing and scanning again later. Your health care professional can also help you to understand when doing nothing and scanning again later is the right treatment decision. For example, if your glucose is high and going up, your first instinct may be to take more insulin to lower your glucose, however depending on when you last took insulin or your recent activity, the right treatment decision may be to do nothing and scan again later. Avoid insulin stacking. Sensor glucose values, which are based on interstitial fluid glucose levels, can be different from blood glucose levels (fingersticks), particularly during times when your blood glucose is changing quickly. If your glucose readings and alarms from the System do not match your symptoms or expectations, use a fingerstick blood glucose value from a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions. Glucose Rising Quickly Sensor Glucose 80 mg/dL Blood Glucose 70 mg/dL Blood Glucose 100 mg/dL Sensor Glucose 95 mg/dL Glucose Falling Quickly When not to use Sensor Glucose readings for treatment decisions No Current Glucose Number When there is no Current Glucose number, such as when you receive an error message or a LO or HI result, you dont have enough information to make a treatment decision. Do a blood glucose test and treat based on that result. 39 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 39-40 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 39-40 40 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM symbol during the first 12 hours of wearing a When you see the Sensor During the first 12 hours of Sensor wear the you cannot use Sensor values to make treatment decisions during this time. Confirm Sensor glucose readings with a blood glucose test before making treatment decisions during the first 12 hours of Sensor wear when you see the symbol will display, and symbol. Think Your Readings are Incorrect?
Dont trust Sensor glucose readings that you think may be incorrect or that dont match what you would expect based on your recent activity. For example, if you ate dinner but forgot to take insulin before eating, you would expect your glucose to be high. If your glucose reading is low, then it doesnt match your recent activity, so dont use it to make treatment decisions. Dont make treatment decisions if you think your Sensor glucose readings are incorrect. Do a blood glucose test and treat based on that result. Symptoms Dont Match Readings There may be times when your symptoms dont match your Sensor glucose readings. For example, you are feeling shaky, sweaty, and dizzy symptoms you generally get when you have low glucose, but your glucose reading is within your target range. When symptoms dont match readings, do a blood glucose test and treat based on that result. Dont ignore symptoms that may be due to low or high blood glucose. If youre the caregiver, pay attention to times when the symptoms of the one youre caring for dont match their Sensor glucose readings. When symptoms dont match readings, do a blood glucose test and treat based on that result. When to do Nothing and Scan Again Later Your health care professional can help you understand when doing nothing and scanning again later is the right treatment decision. For example, if your glucose is high and going up, your first instinct may be to take more insulin to lower your glucose, however depending on when you last took insulin or your recent activity, the right treatment decision may be to do nothing and scan again later. Dont take a correction dose within 2 hours of your meal dose. This may result in insulin stacking and low glucose. 41 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 41-42 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 41-42 42 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Using Your Glucose Reading to Make a Treatment Decision After you scan your Sensor, use all of the information on the screen when deciding what to do or what treatment decision to make.

Alarms When in range of the Reader, your Sensor automatically communicates with the Reader to give you Low and High Glucose Alarms. These alarms are on by default. This section explains how to set and use alarms as well as how to turn them off. IMPORTANT: Glucose alarms are an important safety feature for some people. For example, those that have impaired awareness of hypoglycemia or a history of severe hypoglycemia. Before you turn alarms off or change their settings, please consult your health care professional. Please read all the information in this section before setting and using alarms. CAUTION:
For you to receive alarms, they must be on and your Reader should be within 20 feet of you at all times. The transmission range is 20 feet unobstructed. If you are out of range, you may not receive glucose alarms. To prevent missed alarms, make sure the Reader has sufficient charge and that sound and/or vibration are turned on. 55 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 55-56 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 55-56 56 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM IMPORTANT: What to know about glucose alarms Scan your Sensor often to check your glucose. If you get a Low or High Glucose Alarm, you must obtain a glucose result to determine what to do next. The Low and High Glucose Alarms should not be used exclusively to detect low or high glucose conditions. The glucose alarms should always be used along with your current glucose, glucose trend arrow, and glucose graph. Low and High Glucose Alarm levels are different from your Target Glucose Range values. Low and High Glucose Alarms tell you when your glucose has passed the level you set in the alarm. Your Target Glucose Range is displayed on glucose graphs on the Reader and used to calculate your Time In Target. IMPORTANT: How to prevent missed alarms Alarms must be kept on for you to receive them and you should ensure that your Reader is within 20 feet of you at all times. The Sensor itself will not issue alarms. If the Sensor is not communicating with the Reader, you will not receive glucose alarms, and you may miss detecting low glucose or high glucose episodes. You will see the symbol on the Home screen when the Sensor is not communicating with the Reader. Make sure the Signal Loss Alarm is on so you will be notified if your Sensor has not communicated with the Reader for 20 minutes. Make sure the Readers sound and/or vibration settings are on and your Reader is near you. The Home screen indicates the sound/vibration setting when any alarm is on:

* Security measures: The communication between the Reader and Sensor during a scan is a short range Near Field Communication (NFC) method which makes it difficult to interfere with or intercept during transmission. The transmitted data is protected by a proprietary data format, encryption, and memory map. The integrity of transmitted data is ensured by a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) generated by the Sensor and verified by the Reader. The communication between the Reader and Sensor for Alarm data is a standard Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connection. The pairing of the Sensor to the Reader is accomplished during activation with an authenticated login procedure that uses an Out-of-band key exchange (NFC). This prevents unauthorized devices from connecting to the Sensor. The transmitted data is protected by a proprietary data format and encryption. This prevents unauthorized devices from accessing the data if they are within range and intercept the transmission. Under normal operation, the industry standard BLE protocols allow for many users to be in the same vicinity. In the case where the connection is lost due to out-of-range or interference, reconnection is only possible with the authenticated Reader that activated the Sensor. Quality of Service (QoS): QoS for the FreeStyle Libre 2 Reader and Sensor wireless communications using NFC is assured within the effective range of 4 cm between the Sensor and Reader that is specified to occur within 15 seconds. QoS for the wireless communication using BLE is assured between the Reader and Sensor at regular 1-minute intervals. If connection is lost between the Reader and Sensor for 5-minutes, the connection lost symbol displays. If connection is lost for 126 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM 20 minutes, the Reader alarms the user if the alarm is turned on. If connection is lost between the Sensor and the Reader, up to 8 hours of glucose results can be retrieved by performing a scan with the Reader. The Reader is designed to only accept radio frequency (RF) communications from recognized and paired Sensors. 127 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 127-128 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 127-128 Labeling Symbols Consult instructions for use Use-by date Temperature limit Catalog number Manufacturer Serial number Batch code Keep dry Type BF applied part Non-ionizing radiation CODE Sensor code Caution Do not re-use Sterilized using irradiation MR unsafe Humidity limitation FCC Declaration of Conformity mark Contains FCC ID:

One study included adults (Adult study) and the other study included children (Pediatric study). All subjects in both studies required insulin to manage their diabetes. To measure the precision of the System, each subject wore two Sensors, one on the back of each upper arm, for a period of up to 14 days. While in the clinic, subjects had their venous blood glucose analyzed using a laboratory reference method, the Yellow Springs Instrument Life Sciences 2300 STAT Plus Glucose & Lactate Analyzer (YSI). Sensor glucose readings were then compared to the YSI glucose results in subjects 6 years and older to evaluate the Systems performance. In the pediatric study, System performance was compared against a self-monitoring blood glucose meter for subjects 4-5 years old. Adult study: The Adult study was conducted at 5 centers with 146 subjects in total (91.1% Type 1, 8.9% Type 2), all aged eighteen and older. Subjects had their venous blood glucose analyzed over three separate visits to the clinical center. Each visit lasted up to ten hours. 144 subjects were analyzed during the beginning of the Sensor wear period (day 1, 2, or 3), 91 subjects were analyzed during the early middle period (day 7 or 8), 55 subjects were analyzed during the late middle period
(day 9 or 12), and 76 subjects were analyzed during the end period (day 13 or 14). During each visit, adult subjects had their glucose levels deliberately manipulated per the study protocol to raise or lower glucose. This was done to assess performance of the System over the range that the System measures glucose (40 400 mg/dL). Pediatric study: The Pediatric study was conducted at 4 centers with 139 subjects in total (98.6% Type 1, 1.4% Type 2), all aged four to seventeen. Subjects age six and older had their venous blood glucose analyzed for up to 16 hours over one or two separate visits to the clinical center. Each visit lasted up to eight hours. During each visit, subjects age 11 and older had their glucose levels deliberately 130 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 129-130 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 129-130 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM manipulated per the study protocol to raise or lower glucose. This was done to assess performance of the System over the range that the System measures glucose (40 400 mg/dL). 48 subjects were analyzed during the beginning of the Sensor wear period (day 1 or 2), 50 subjects were analyzed during the early middle period (day 7 or 8), 51 subjects were analyzed during the late middle period
(day 9 or 12), and 51 subjects were analyzed during the end period (day 13 or 14). All subjects tested their blood glucose using fingerstick capillary samples at least four times during each day of the study. Accuracy Accuracy of the System was measured by comparing paired System Glucose Measurement (CGM) and YSI blood glucose values. The percentage of total System readings that were within 20 mg/dL for YSI blood glucose values < 70 mg/dL or 20% of YSI for blood glucose values 70 mg/dL is displayed in Table 1a. The Mean Absolute Relative Difference (MARD) gives an indication of the average percent disagreement between the CGM and the reference. For example, in the Adult study, 92.4% of the readings fell within 20 mg/dL of YSI blood glucose values < 70 mg/dL and within 20% of YSI blood glucose values 70 mg/dL. The total number of data pairs considered in the analysis was 18,735. In the Adult study, the Mean Absolute Relative Difference was 9.2% for the comparison with YSI reference. In the Pediatric study, the Mean Absolute Relative Difference was 9.7% for the comparison with YSI reference. Table 1a: Overall Accuracy to YSI Subject Group Number of CGM-

* No YSI measurements were obtained for children ages 4-5; results displayed are from CGM-SMBG matched paired measurements. The accuracy of different CGM glucose ranges versus YSI reference was assessed by calculating the percentage of System readings that were within 15%, 20%, and 40% for reference values 70 mg/dL, and within 15 mg/dL, 20 mg/dL, and 40 mg/dL for values < 70 mg/dL. For blood glucose values < 70 mg/dL, the difference in mg/dL between the CGM and YSI blood glucose values was calculated. For values 70 mg/dL, the relative difference (%) to the YSI blood glucose values was calculated. The results categorized within CGM glucose ranges are presented in Tables 1b and 1c. The results categorized within YSI glucose ranges are presented in Tables 1d and 1e. 131 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 131-132 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 131-132 132 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Table 1b: Accuracy to YSI within CGM Glucose Ranges (Adult; n=144) Table 1c: Accuracy to YSI within CGM Glucose Ranges (Pediatric*; n=129) CGM Glucose Level

When the System determines that glucose level is below 40 mg/dL, it will report as LO. When the System determines that glucose level is above 400 mg/dL, it will report as HI. Tables 2a and 2b display the concurrence between the CGM and YSI reference glucose when CGM reads LO. For example, in the Adult study, when CGM reading was LO, YSI glucose values were less than 50 mg/dL 20.0% of the time, less than 60 mg/dL 40.0% of the time, less than 70 mg/dL 40.0% of the time, less than 80 mg/dL 80.0% of the time, and equal to or above 80 mg/dL 20.0 % of the time.

. 0.2 0.5 6.0 Glucose Rate of Change Accuracy The Systems glucose rate of change accuracy, as assessed by concurrence analysis, is presented in Tables 4a and 4b. For example, in the Adult study, when the Sensor glucose trend arrow indicated that glucose was changing slowly downward (-1 to 0 mg/dL/min (g)), actual glucose levels in the body were falling quickly (<-2 mg/dL/min) 1.2% of the time, falling (-2 to -1 mg/dL/min) 8.3%
of the time, changing slowly downward (-1 to 0 mg/dL/min ) 67.1% of the time, changing slowly upward (0 to 1 mg/dL/min ) 19.7% of the time, rising (1 to 2 mg/dL/min ) 2.6% of the time, and were rising quickly (>2 mg/dL/min ) 1.2% of the time. Digitally connected systems which do not utilize the Systems trend arrow calculations may see different glucose rate of change accuracy.

Alarm Performance The tables in this section show the accuracy of the Systems Low and High Glucose Alarms. The Alarm Rate tells you how often the alarm is right or wrong. The Detection Rate tells you how often the System is able to recognize and notify you about a low or high glucose event. Low Glucose Alarm Performance Tables 5a and 5b display the percentages for these parameters:
True Alarm Rate Tells you: When you got a low glucose alarm, were you actually low?
Definition: Percentage of time the alarm issued and blood glucose was below the alarm level within 15 minutes before or after the alarm. 145 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 145-146 DOC40703_rev-K_manual.indd 145-146 False Alarm Rate Tells you: Did you get a low glucose alarm that you shouldnt have?
Definition: Percentage of time the alarm issued and blood glucose was not below the alarm level within 15 minutes before or after the alarm. Detection Rate Tells you: When you were low, did you get a low glucose alarm?
Definition: Percentage of time blood glucose was below the alarm level and the alarm issued within 15 minutes before or after the glucose event. Missed Detection Rate Tells you: When you were low, did you miss a low glucose alarm?
Definition: Percentage of time blood glucose was below the alarm level and the alarm didnt issue within 15 minutes before or after the glucose event. For example, the Adult study found that for a Low Glucose alarm level set to 70 mg/dL:
86.0% of the time a low glucose alarm was received when blood glucose was indeed below the alarm level but 14.0% of the time a low glucose alarm was received when blood glucose wasnt actually below the alarm level. 89.3% of the time blood glucose was below the alarm level and a low glucose alarm was appropriately issued but 10.7% of the time the glucose event was missed and no alarm was issued. 146 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Table 5a: Low Glucose Alarm Performance (Adult; n=144) Low Glucose Alarm level

The percentage of System readings within YSI values and the Mean Absolute Relative Difference (MARD) is presented for the following different wear periods in Tables 6a and 6b: Beginning (Adult: 144 Subjects, Day 1, 2 or 3; Pediatric: 48 Subjects, Day 1 or 2) Early Middle (Adult: 91 Subjects, Day 7 or 8; Pediatric: 50 Subjects, Day 7 or 8), Late Middle (Adult:
55 Subjects, Day 9 or 12; Pediatric: 51 Subjects, Day 9 or 12), and End (Adult: 76 Subjects, Day 13 or 14; Pediatric: 51 Subjects, Day 13 or 14). For values 70 mg/dL and above, the percentage of readings within 15%, 20%, and 40% of the YSI value was calculated. For values below 70 mg/dL, the percentage of readings within 15 mg/dL, 20 mg/dL, and 40 mg/dL of the YSI value was calculated. 150 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Table 6a: Sensor Accuracy Relative to YSI over the wear duration (Adult; n=144) Wear Period Number of CGM-reference pairs Beginning Early Middle Late Middle End 6955 4522 3503 3755 MARD (%) Within 15% /

To estimate how long a Sensor will work over the wear duration, 146 Sensors were evaluated in the Adult study and 139 Sensors were evaluated in the Pediatric study to determine how many days of readings each Sensor provided. Subjects did not wash the insertion site with soap and water before applying the Sensors and wore two Sensors simultaneously. Of the 146 Sensors in the Adult study, 71.1% lasted until the final day of use. 6 Sensors (4.1%) had early sensor shut-off where the Sensor algorithm detected that the Sensors did not function as intended and presented the user with a Replace Sensor message. In the Pediatric study, 78.1% of the Sensors lasted until the final day of use. 3 Sensors (2.2%) had early sensor shut-off where the Sensor algorithm detected that the Sensors did not function as intended and presented the user with a Replace Sensor message. Tables 7a and 7b display the data for each day in the wear duration for the Adult & Pediatric studies. A third clinical study was also conducted to further evaluate wear duration in subjects who first washed the insertion site with a plain soap and water, according to the full instructions in the labeling and wore only a single Sensor.

Table 9a provides data from 146 subjects in the Adult study;
Table 9b provides data from 137 subjects in the Pediatric study. For adults, the paired absolute relative difference (PARD) between the two Sensors was 8.1% with coefficient of variation (CV) of 5.7%. For children ages 4-5, PARD was 6.7% with CV of 4.8%. For children ages 6-17, PARD was 8.2% with CV of 5.8%. Paired absolute difference (PAD) is a measurement of absolute difference
(in mg/dL) between paired CGM readings, while PARD is the absolute relative difference (in %) between paired CGM readings. Table 9a: Overall between Sensor Precision (Adult; n=146) Coefficient of Variation (%) Paired Absolute Difference (mg/dL) Paired Absolute Relative Difference

In the Adult study, mild skin irritations, such as erythema, bruising, bleeding, and scabbing were reported around the insertion site and adhesive area by a small number of subjects (10 out of 146 or 6.8%). Pain was mostly reported as none with only one instance of mild pain. In the Pediatric study, there were 8 instances of erythema (4 well-defined redness, and 4 slight pink), 5 instances of edema (3 slight edema, 2 slight edema with defined edges), 2 instances of mild bleeding, one instance of mild induration and one instance of mild rash. Ascorbic Acid Interference Taking ascorbic acid (vitamin C) supplements while wearing the Sensor may falsely raise Sensor glucose readings. Taking more than 500 mg of ascorbic acid per day may affect the Sensor readings which could cause you to miss a severe low glucose event. Ascorbic acid can be found in supplements including multivitamins. Some supplements, including cold remedies such as Airborne and Emergen-C, may contain high doses of 1000 mg of ascorbic acid and should not be taken while using the Sensor. See your health care professional to understand how long ascorbic acid is active in your body. 158 3/19/21 9:13 AM 3/19/21 9:13 AM Additional notes for Health Care Professionals A clinical study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ascorbic acid on Sensor performance. Data from 57 adult subjects with diabetes was collected over a 13-hour period. Each subject had a one-hour baseline phase where venous blood was collected every 10 minutes. After this first hour, a dose of 1000 mg ascorbic acid was given with a meal and venous samples were collected every 20 minutes for the next four hours. A maximum average sensor bias of 9.3 mg/dL was observed around 3 hours after the 1000 mg ascorbic acid dose. Subjects then received a second dose of 1000 mg ascorbic acid with a meal and the same process was continued for another 4 hours. A third dose of 1000 mg ascorbic acid was then given and study subjects were followed for 4 more hours. After the second dose of ascorbic acid the maximum average sensor bias increased, with minimal change in sensor bias after the third dose, suggesting that saturation had occurred by the second 1000 mg dose of ascorbic acid. The maximum average sensor bias after the three 1000 mg doses of ascorbic acid was less than 20 mg/dL.

Customer Service is available at 1-855-632-8658 7 Days a Week from 8AM to 8PM Eastern Standard Time. Do not reuse Sensors. The Sensor and Sensor Applicator are designed for single use. Reuse may result in no glucose readings and infection. Not suitable for re-sterilization. Further exposure to irradiation may cause unreliable low results. The Sensor Pack and Sensor Applicator are packaged as a set and have the same Sensor code. Check that the Sensor codes match before using your Sensor Pack and Sensor Applicator. Do not use Sensor Packs and Sensor Applicators with different Sensor codes together as this will result in incorrect glucose readings. Some individuals may be sensitive to the adhesive that keeps the Sensor attached to the skin. If you notice significant skin irritation around or under your Sensor, remove the Sensor and stop using the System. Contact your health care professional before continuing to use the System. Description The Sensor initially comes in two parts: one part is in the Sensor Pack and the other part is in the Sensor Applicator. Follow the instructions to prepare and apply the Sensor on the back of your upper arm. The Sensor has a small, flexible tip that is inserted just under the skin. The Sensor can be worn for up to 14 days. The Sensor does not need to be calibrated with blood glucose values. Sensor Kit Parts Sensor Pack Used with Sensor Applicator to prepare Sensor for use. Sensor Applicator Applies Sensor to body. Alcohol Wipe Used to prepare skin before Sensor application. User Safety, Storage, and Handling The Sensor Pack is sterile and non-pyrogenic unless opened or damaged. Using a non-sterile or pyrogenic Sensor might cause infection. Store the Sensor Kit between 36F and 82F. Storage outside of this range may cause inaccurate Sensor glucose readings. If you suspect that the temperature may exceed 82F (for example, in an un-airconditioned home in summer), you should refrigerate your Sensor Kit. Do not freeze your Sensor Kit. Store your Sensor Kit in a cool, dry place. Do not store your Sensor Kit in a parked car on a hot day. Your Sensor has been tested to withstand immersion into 3 feet
