When to Use the FreeStyle Libre 3 Sensor?

The FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor is ideal for people with type 1, type 2, or gestational diabetes. It offers continuous glucose monitoring without the need for traditional finger prick tests.

It offers ongoing peace of mind by tracking glucose levels in your interstitial fluid and sending automatic readings to your smartphone.

The sensor can help you understand your blood glucose levels and identify trends, such as which foods impact them. In addition to providing real-time glucose readings, the Libre 3 Sensor also helps your diabetes healthcare team monitor your condition and provide bespoke recommendations.

Age Restrictions

The Freestyle Libre 3 system can be used by adults and children aged four and over, making it ideal for parents who want to monitor their children's levels throughout the day.

How to Use the FreeStyle Libre 3 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System?

When using the Libre 3 Sensor, please follow these steps:

• Wash your upper arm with mild soap and water, then use an alcohol wipe to clean it.
• Once dry, you can use the application to apply the FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor. All you need to do is place the applicator over the site and apply pressure until you hear a click. Then, wait a few seconds and remove the applicator.
• Before receiving glucose readings, you'll need to set up the app, which is relatively simple. Once the app setup is complete, the sensor will send automatic readings to your phone.

When to Avoid Using the Sensor?

In most cases, the FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor is suitable for most people with diabetes, but there are some cases when it might not be the best choice for your needs. They include:

• Age Restrictions: The sensor is only suitable for adults and children over four years old.
• Critical Care: If you're in an intensive care unit or your doctor advises against relying on the sensor, you should avoid using it, as the readings shouldn't solely dictate direct insulin dosing.
• Skin Sensitivities: If you have sensitive skin or allergies to medical devices and adhesives, you should avoid applying the sensor as it might cause reactions.
• High Vitamin C Use: Taking high doses (exceeding 500 mg) of Vitamin C daily can cause false results, which may impact your dosing choices.

Precautions

Remember to remove the sensor if you're having a CT or MRI scan, as it can damage the device. While most people can wear it when having an X-ray, it's best to inform the healthcare professional beforehand.

If your blood glucose meter appears damaged or is past its expiration date, please use a new sensor, as your results might be compromised.
