Roche Diabetes Care and Senseonics announce a distribution agreement for the Eversese® CGM system

On my son's last visit to the endocrine, the educator of the Diabetes Unit told us that the launch of the Roche sensor was imminent but that prices were not yet known.He told us that in the unit they had high hopes that the sensor went on the market at an economic price, since they had many patients to which the current sensors were giving them many problems of irritation and allergy in the skin.

I asked him about the aggressiveness of the insertion system and told me that it was simple, a minimum incision, and that it also seems that the same incision will serve two consecutive sensors, that is, when they take away one in the same hole they put the next butIn the opposite direction.That was not very clear to me but I didn't ask for more details either.

He told us that on top of the skin he will carry a small "chapita" that will make a transmitter.Quickly my son said: "Wow, then the theme of allergies will not be able to avoid it ..."

Have you seen the video where they put it to you?Say the incision is minimal because you have to spend a week without doing sports?Why do brands stay?Everything will depend on an exceptional price because I repeat back we go back for the comments of the people who carry it and what we are seeing.If we complain about the size of now and that keeping it time is sometimes complicated, imagining such a brick and we can remove it, I don't know why, but good

@"Jconegar" the truth that I do not know if the nurse-educational that told me about the minimum incision, has seen it with her own eyes or not.Maybe he only speaks for what they have "sold" Roche's commercials.Don't know.The next time I see her with more time I will try to find out better.

The video I have not decided to see it because I am a bit apprehensive and also I do not want to start with prejudices to value this new system.I want to think that Roche's will be investing in improving the insertion method, in the account that brings them ...

I really sensor the advantage that I see is that in theory avoids the problems of skin irritation that entails having adhered to it a sensor 365 days a year.But of course, if then brings other damages that do not compensate, then we will have to forget ...

@"PGARCÍA" tries to watch the video but I think they have sold you the motorcycle badly, and that nurse has no dagger idea of ​​what it says !!!!!
The insertion method can not be otherwise than the one that indicates the video, with the aggravating fact that it is financed by social security will go to your coast looking for a nurse who does it to you and will not be cheap, this is sure, and notI see so clear that social security financially seeing what we are seeing.
On the other hand I think that this is how this is going, you also have an issuer hit !!!It's the same as everyone !!!!You also carry that piece inside the skin, another thing would be as you say that the sender is not needed, and the issuer that you have to wear is a brick.

@"JCONEGAR" Well, then I don't understand what kind of investment return studies these from Roche have done.If this is how you are not going to sell anything at all and it will be a failure.Not even if they take it out at a ridiculous price ...
