t:slim X2 insulin pump: the child friendly pump!
So easy a kid can do it. And parents too ?
Let your child be a child
We understand that you want your kid to enjoy all the wonderful parts of growing up instead of being burdened by constantly worrying about their diabetes. Using easily programmed settings, the t:slim X2TM insulin pump operates in the background without needing constant input or interaction, so your kid can be a kid.
Making diabetes easier with Control IQ Technology
Keeping your kid’s blood sugar in range can be stressful. Our Control-IQTM advanced hybrid closed-loop technology makes it easier by using Dexcom G6 CGM values to predict glucose levels 30 minutes ahead and automatically adjusting insulin to help increase time in range.
Less injections…
Nobody likes shots. Adults don't like giving them, and kids don't like receiving them.
With the t:slim X2, you will need to do on average 122* infusion set insertions per year, compared to 1.460 syringe/pen injections.
Disclaimer: *Based on four injections per day for shots and one site change every three days for pumps.
2) …no more finger pricks*
How can you manage your kid’s diabetes minus the metre? Dexcom G6 CGM is a small sensor that delivers real-time glucose readings every five minutes to the t:slim X2 insulin pump, so your pump knows when more, less, or zero insulin is needed.
Disclaimer: *If your glucose alerts and readings from the G6 do not match symptoms or
expectations, use a blood glucose metre to make diabetes treatment decisions.
3) Fits in with your kid’s lifestyle
Between school, sports, and just being social, day-to-day life can put a lot of demand on a pump. With a sleek design and durability, the t:slim X2 pump has what it takes to keep up with your kid.
Sleep and play has never been easier
Whether your kid is racing up and down the court, or settling in for the night, Control-IQ technology features two optional settings for Exercise and Sleep Activities that adjust treatment ranges for more targeted control.
