The Medtronic MiniMed 780G insulin pump system comes with both “Manual” and “SmartGuard” mode. With built-in safety features designed to protect the user from hypo- and hyperglycemic events. The system continuously monitors blood glucose levels and automatically adjusts insulin delivery to maintain the user’s target range. If blood glucose levels move out of range, such as above 180 mg/dL or below 70 mg/dL, the pump will adjust insulin delivery to bring it back within range. Additionally, a high/low glucose alarm notifies users of critical levels. To use the pump in Manual mode, SmartGuard needs to be turned off.
The 780G is approved for people with type 1 diabetes age 7 and above and adults ages 18+ living with insulin-requiring type 2 diabetes.
