[QUOTE="DunePlodder, post: 1498440, member: 25119"] Around a year ago [USER=30007]@tim2000s[/USER] posted a thread about Medtrum which looked very interesting but then seemed to fade away with little news. Last week I left a message on the Medtrum Facebook page & was surprised to discover that their S6 CGM is now available in the UK. I exchanged several emails & was quoted a price of £180 for 4 sensors and a transmitter. Since Dexcom sensors last me up to 3 weeks this is more than I pay now, even allowing for the included transmitter - based on 7 days for the Medtrum sensor. Accuracy wise they state a MARD of 9%, similar to Dexcom I believe. There is no receiver - you use an app, either IOS or Android (Medtrum EasyTouch available on Google Play) Readings come through every 2 minutes & are stored on the transmitter for later uploading if you lose connection. I did ask Medtrum if it was possible to restart a sensor but had no reply. One restart would make the cost much more appealing, though whether the disposable transmitter would last long enough I don't know. Has anyone here actually tried the system? [/QUOTE]
