Introduction
The one-press serter (MMT-7512) is used as an aid to insert Medtronic MiniMed™ glucose sensors.
Indications for use
The serter is indicated for single-patient use. It is not intended for use by multiple patients. Refer to the system
user guide for additional information, such as the intended age group.
Contraindications
No contraindications are associated with serter use. For contraindications related to continuous glucose
monitoring, see the system user guide.
Clinical benefits
Not applicable. The serter is an accessory that helps to insert compatible Medtronic sensors.
User safety
Warnings
Read this entire user guide prior to sensor insertion. The serter does not work the same way as other Medtronic
insertion devices. Failure to follow directions may result in improper insertion, pain, or injury.
For additional warnings related to sensor use, see the sensor user guide.
Keep the serter out of reach of children. The serter contains small parts and may pose a choking hazard that can
result in serious injury or death.
Do not make therapy decisions based on sensor glucose values. Sensor glucose and blood glucose values may
differ. If a sensor glucose reading is low or high, or if symptoms of low or high blood glucose are present, use a
BG meter to confirm blood glucose before making therapy decisions. Failure to check blood glucose levels with a
BG meter prior to making therapy decisions can result in the infusion of too much or too little insulin, which can
result in hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.
Healthcare professionals and caregivers:
• A retractable needle is attached to the sensor. Minimal bleeding may occur. Always wear gloves to insert
the sensor.
• Cover the sensor with sterile gauze to remove the needle housing from the sensor.
Place the needle housing directly into a sharps container after sensor insertion to prevent accidental needle stick
injury.
Always inspect the sensor packaging for damage before use. Sensors are sterile and non-pyrogenic unless the
package has been opened or damaged. If the sensor packaging is open or damaged, discard the sensor directly
into a medical waste container. Use of a non-sterile sensor can result in infection at the insertion site.
For questions or concerns related to serter use, contact a local Medtronic support representative for assistance.
For medical questions or concerns, contact a healthcare provider.
Precautions
Wash hands with soap and water prior to sensor insertion to reduce the risk of infection.
Inspect the insertion site for bleeding under, around, or on top of the sensor. If bleeding occurs, use sterile gauze
to apply steady pressure to the sensor for three minutes.
WARNING: Do not use non-sterile gauze to apply pressure to the sensor. Use of non-sterile gauze can cause
infection at the insertion site.
If bleeding stops after three minutes of steady pressure, connect the transmitter to the sensor.
