Indications and Important Safety Information for the CoPilot® System for
the FreeStyle Navigator® System
CoPilot® System for the FreeStyle Navigator® System Intended Use and
Application:
The CoPilot system is intended for use in home and clinical settings by
patients and healthcare professionals. It is intended to aid people with
diabetes and healthcare professionals in the review, analysis and evaluation of
information such as historical blood glucose test results, insulin dosages,
carbohydrate intake, and exercise data in support of an effective diabetes
health management program. It can be used with supported Abbott Diabetes Care
blood glucose monitoring systems, where data is uploaded, saved, analyzed,
displayed as charts, graphs and reports, printed, and shared.
Users should be aware that the CoPilot system is merely an information management tool – it does not provide diagnostic information, nor does it give advice on the management of diabetes, and it is therefore not intended to substitute for the support of a healthcare professional. Home users should always consult their healthcare professional if they have any queries or concerns about diabetes management.
The CoPilot Health Management System for FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CoPilot system for FreeStyle Navigator) allows data to be uploaded from the FreeStyle Navigator system to the CoPilot system, where it can be saved, analyzed, displayed as reports, charts and graphs, printed and shared.
Indications and Important Safety Information for the FreeStyle Navigator System
Safety Information:
Users should read all of the instructions in the User’s Guide before using the
FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System. Adjustments to
treatment should be done under the guidance of the user’s healthcare team.
Indications for Use:
The FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System is indicated for
continually recording interstitial fluid glucose levels in people (ages 18 and
older) with diabetes mellitus for the purpose of improving diabetes management.
Readings and alarms about glucose levels from the FreeStyle Navigator
Continuous Glucose Monitoring System are not intended to replace traditional
blood glucose monitoring. Before adjusting therapy for diabetes management
based on results and alarms from the FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose
Monitoring System, traditional blood glucose tests must be performed. The
FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System provides a built-in
blood glucose meter to confirm the continuous glucose result.
The FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System provides real-time readings, graphs, trends, and glucose alarms directly to the user. The FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System is intended to be used in home settings to aid people with diabetes in predicting and detecting episodes of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia and in clinical settings to aid healthcare professionals in evaluating glucose control. The FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System is available only by prescription.
Contraindications:
The FreeStyle Navigator Continuous Glucose Monitoring System must be removed
prior to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
Prescription Device:
Federal law restricts the sale of this device by or on order of a
physician.
Warnings/Precautions:
Infection, inflammation, or bleeding at the glucose sensor insertion site are
possible risks of inserting a sensor into your skin. If you believe your
results are not reliable, or are inconsistent with how you feel, perform a
blood glucose mode test to measure your glucose. If the problem continues,
discard the old sensor and insert a new sensor. Performance of the system under
conditions of fluctuating hydration levels such as during renal dialysis has
not been evaluated. Unintended dislodging of the sensor due to excessive
perspiration, exercise, or bumping, may cause unreliable or no results without
warning. Performance of the FreeStyle Navigator system has not been evaluated
in pregnant women.
