The Tandem Mobi insulin pump with interoperable technology (the pump) is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring insulin. The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices.

The pump is intended for single patient, home use and requires a prescription. The pump is indicated for use in individuals 2 years of age and greater.

Control-IQ+ technology is intended for use with compatible interoperable continuous glucose monitors (iCGM), alternate controller enabled (ACE) pumps to automatically increase, decrease, and suspend delivery of basal insulin based on iCGM readings and predicted glucose values. It can also deliver correction boluses when the glucose value is predicted to exceed a predefined threshold.

Control-IQ+ technology is not a substitute for your own active diabetes management. Control-IQ+ technology is intended for the management of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons 2 years of age and greater and of Type 2 diabetes mellitus in persons 18 years of age and greater. Control-IQ+ technology is intended for single patient use and requires a prescription

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
