Incision Care
Stay in the know with the Eversense E3 and get helpful pointers on how to manage your diabetes with it.
Do not swim or soak the incision site in a tub for at least 5 days. Showering is fine, but avoid the direct stream of water to the site.
Until the site heals, avoid activities that may pull at the incision or cause sweating around the insertion area.
The Tegaderm™ should stay on for at least five days. If it comes off before then, replace it. Take extra care not to pull off the Steri-Strips™ when removing the Tegaderm™ pad.
Leave Steri-Strips™ on until they fall off.

Incision care is just one step in getting the most out of Eversense E3
Do not pull, tug, or rub Steri-Strips™. In most cases, the Steri-Strips™ will fall off on their own within two weeks. If the strips start to curl during that time, you can trim them with scissors. If they are still in place after two weeks, speak to your health care provider to give you specific instructions about when and how to remove them.
A fully charged smart transmitter battery typically lasts approximately 24 to 36 hours. It is recommended to always charge the smart transmitter for a full 15 minutes using a wall outlet to ensure a full charge. We find that for most people, a good routine is charging it at about the same time each day, for example while taking a shower.
To get a Good or Excellent signal in the Placement Guide, try moving the smart transmitter up or down slightly or, slightly rotating it over the sensor. Wait about 1 second for the Placement Guide to refresh between each adjustment. If helpful, tap Show More Detail to display a numerical value of signal strength.

The Eversense® E3 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System is indicated for continually measuring glucose levels for up to 180 days in persons with diabetes age 18 and older. The system is indicated for use to replace fingerstick blood glucose (BG) measurements for diabetes treatment decisions. Fingerstick BG measurements are still required for calibration primarily one time a day after day 21, and when symptoms do not match CGM information or when taking medications of the tetracycline class. The sensor insertion and removal procedures are performed by a health care provider. The Eversense E3 CGM System is a prescription device; patients should talk to their health care provider to learn more. For safety information click here.
