Our smallest, most discreet sensor yet1 that is worn on the back
of the upper arm and continuously measures the glucose
concentration in the body's interstitial fluid day and night. The
sensor updates the glucose result up to every minute and sends it
straight to your compatible . It can be worn for up to
14 days and is water-resistant so continues to work while you
shower, swim or exercise.₸ The most accurate 14-day CGM system2
to help reduce time spent in hypoglycaemia3 and improve overall
glucose control.4 The world’s smallest, thinnest, and most
discreet sensor1 – about the size of a pound coin. Easy to apply
and wear5 with a simple one-piece applicator. Also easy on the
environment with 41% less plastic and 43% less outer packaging
material.5 Glucose readings streamed directly to your
every minute.◊ Glucose monitoring has never been easier or more
convenient. To use your FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor, download the
FreeStyle Libre 3 app for free* on your and get your
glucose readings. NICE recommends HCL for managing glucose levels
in type 1 es6,7,8 This means more people with type 1
es qualify for Hybrid Closed Loop compatible systems like
the FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor, which is authorised to work with
the mylife Loop^ system. 6. An HCL system consists of a
continuous glucose monitor (CGM) sensor, a control algorithm and
an insulin pump. 7. NICE [2023] Hybrid closed loop systems for
managing blood glucose levels in type 1 es. [GID-TA10845].
www.nice.org.uk/guidance/indevelopment/gid-ta10845. 8. Only use
hybrid closed loop systems with the support of a trained
multidisciplinary team experienced in continuous subcutaneous
insulin infusion and continuous glucose monitoring in type 1
es. Only use hybrid closed loop systems if the person or
their carer understands and is able to use them, and is also
attending a type 1 es structured education programme.

FreeStyle Libre 3 is authorised to work with the mylife Loop
automated insulin delivery system, including the mylife CaS FX
app and mylife YpsoPump insulin pump. For use of FreeStyle Libre
3 sensor with the mylife Loop, refer to the labeling provided
with the mylife CaS FX app. ₸ Sensor is water resistant in up
to 1 metre (3 feet) of water for a maximum of 30 minutes. Do not
immerse longer than 30 minutes. Not to be used above 10,000 feet.
◊ The FreeStyle Libre 3 app is only compatible with certain
mobile devices and operating systems. Please check our website
for more information about device compatibility before using the
app. Sharing of glucose data requires registration with
LibreView.
