[QUOTE="azure, post: 1065931, member: 39639"] I think it reads the same, but Medtronic have written it creatively and are obviously promoting both pumps.... Here's what NICE say: [I] "The evidence for the MiniMed 640G system has not been assessed in the guidance, and the recommendations, therefore, do not relate to its routine use in the NHS"[/I] So, no, NICE do [B]not[/B] currently recommend the 640g as they haven't assessed it yet so can't make any judgement or recommendation. Medtronic say: [I]"The [URL='http://www.nice.org.uk/advice/mib51']NICE guidance[/URL] reviewed two sensor-augmented insulin pump therapy systems and recommends the MiniMedParadigm Veo system for managing glucose levels in people with Type 1 diabetes."[/I] So, Medtronic are saying the same as NICE :) In their next bullet point they then go on to mention both the Veo and 640g in the same sentence. So people might wrongly assume that NICE recommends them both, but Medtronic are, I presume, simply promoting the 640g along with the Veo. [/QUOTE]
