The Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System (Dexcom G7 CGM System or G7) is a real time, continuous glucose monitoring device indicated for the management of diabetes in persons 2 years and older.

The Dexcom G7 CGM System is intended to replace fingerstick BG testing for diabetes treatment decisions. Interpretation of the Dexcom G7 CGM System results should be based on the glucose trends and several sequential sensor readings over time. The Dexcom G7 CGM System also aids in the detection of episodes of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, facilitating both acute and long-term therapy adjustments.

The Dexcom G7 CGM System is also intended to autonomously communicate with digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing (AID) systems. The Dexcom G7 CGM System can be used alone or in conjunction with these digitally connected medical devices for the purpose of managing diabetes.

The Dexcom G7 15 Day Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System (Dexcom G7 15 Day CGM System or G7 15 Day) is a real time, continuous glucose monitoring device indicated for the management of diabetes in persons 18 years and older.

The Dexcom G7 15 Day CGM System is intended to replace fingerstick BG testing for diabetes treatment decisions. Interpretation of the Dexcom G7 15 Day CGM System results should be based on the glucose trends and several sequential sensor readings over time. The Dexcom G7 15 Day CGM System also aids in the detection of episodes of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, facilitating both acute and long-term therapy adjustments.
