Special Product Showcase
At Tandem Diabetes Care, we understand that kids want a say when it comes to choosing how to manage their diabetes. We’ve made that choice easier for them and their parents by designing a system that helps to keep diabetes under control. The t:slim X2™ insulin pump with Control-IQ™ technology uses Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM, sold separately) values to predict glucose levels 30 minutes ahead and adjust insulin dosing. Control-IQ technology can also deliver automatic correction boluses* when needed while offering easily personalized Sleep Activity and Exercise Activity settings. So, kids can just be kids.

How Control-IQ Technology Works on the t:slim X2 Insulin Pump
This video provides a brief overview of how Control-IQ technology works with your t:slim X2 insulin pump to help manage your diabetes on a day-to-day basis by predicting and helping prevent both highs and lows. The video explains how Control-IQ advanced hybrid closed-loop technology is designed to help increase time in range (70-180 mg/dL)* using Dexcom G6 CGM values to predict glucose levels 30 minutes ahead and adjust insulin delivery accordingly; including delivery of automatic correction boluses† as needed.
*As measured by CGM
† If glucose values are predicted to be above 180 mg/dL, Control-IQ technology calculates a correction bolus using the Personal Profile settings and a target of 110 mg/dL and delivers 60% of that value. It will do this up to once per hour as needed.

Zoom Backgrounds
For everyone who’s going to do CWD from home, here’s a chance to spruce up your virtual experience.
RESPONSIBLE USE STATEMENT: Control-IQ technology does not prevent all high and low blood glucose events, and is not a substitute for meal boluses and active self-management of your diabetes. Control-IQ technology will not be able to predict sensor glucose values and adjust insulin dosing if your CGM is not working properly or is unable to communicate with your pump. Always pay attention to your symptoms and blood glucose levels and treat accordingly. Please visit tandemdiabetes.com/tslimX2-use for more information.
Important Safety Information:
RX ONLY.
Indications for Use:
t:slim X2 insulin pump
The t:slim X2 insulin pump with interoperable technology is an alternate controller enabled (ACE) pump that is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in people requiring insulin. The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices. The pump is indicated for use in individuals six years of age and greater. The pump is intended for single patient, home use and requires a prescription. The pump is indicated for use with NovoLog or Humalog U-100 insulin.
Control-IQ technology
Control-IQ technology is intended for use with a compatible integrated continuous glucose monitor (iCGM, sold separately) and ACE pump to automatically increase, decrease, and suspend delivery of basal insulin based on iCGM readings and predicted glucose values. It can also deliver correction boluses when the glucose value is predicted to exceed a predefined threshold. Control-IQ technology is intended for the management of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons six years of age and greater. Control-IQ technology is intended for single patient use. Control-IQ technology is indicated for use with NovoLog or Humalog U-100 insulin.

- maintain sufficient diabetes self-care skills;
- see healthcare provider(s) regularly; and
- have adequate vision and/or hearing to recognize all functions of the pump, including alerts, alarms, and reminders.
