Convenient one-push sensor insertion

The AIDEX™ sensor requires an AiDEX™ transmitter to record and transfer readings via Bluetooth to the AiDEX™ mobile App and compatible devices. The AiDEX™ App also allows users to:

- Receive Real Time Alerts
- Customise Alerts
- Share readings and alerts with Caregivers

* Perform fingerstick blood glucose test if Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) reading does not match symptoms, when symptoms of hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia are present or when treatment decisions need to be made. ** Factory Calibrated, optional to calibrate if CGM reading does not match symptoms.
