1.5 RECEIVER OVERVIEW
The receiver is the small hand-held device that looks like a cell phone.
It is about 4 inches long, 1.8 inches wide and 0.5 inches thick. When
used in real-time mode, it shows the sensor glucose readings, trend
graph, direction and rate of change arrow. When used in blinded mode,
it records, but does not display, sensor glucose readings throughout
the sensor session. Regardless of the mode used, the receiver alerts
the patient to any errors in the system, such as low battery. When
healthcare professionals use one receiver for multiple patients, the
receiver shield must be replaced between each patient’s use. The shield
is a thin, stretchy plastic that covers the receiver.
Do not spill fluids on the receiver or drop the receiver into fluids. Keep
the micro USB port door open, and keep the square seal on the receiver
shield over the USB port.
NOTE:
The receiver will store each patient’s data in its memory. For
multiple patient use, it is important that you erase the receiver data
memory after each patient use. This will ensure patient privacy with
subsequent users. See Chapter 10 for instructions on erasing patient
data from the receiver.
NOTE:
In the Dexcom STUDIO software, select the “Prompt to reset
receiver after every download” option under the Options - Healthcare
Professional setting. This feature will remind the healthcare professional
to erase the receiver data after each use.
