Tandem uses a treat-to-range algorithm. It adjusts to a range of sensor sugar and only provides 60% of a correction bolus every hour. The MiniMed™ 780G system is a treat-to-target algorithm which can drive the blood sugar to the lowest target on the market of 100 mg/dL or (110 mg/dL or 120 mg/dL). MiniMed™ 780G is also the only system with Meal DetectionTM technology* that provides automatic adjustments and corrections to sugar levels every 5 minutes§ and helps cover underestimated carb counts or an occasional missed meal bolus.

*Taking a bolus 15 – 20 minutes before a meal helps to keep blood sugar levels under control after eating.
†Refers to auto correct, which provides bolus assistance. Can deliver all auto correction doses automatically without user interaction, feature can be turned on and off.

The transmitter battery is designed to last up to seven days and can be charged using the charger, which requires a AAA alkaline battery. Please call our tech support number 1-800-MINIMED (800-646-4633) to find out ways to improve your sensors life.

The battery life depends on a variety of factors in addition to auto corrections. User results may vary. AA alkaline (LR6) or nickel metal hydride (HR6) batteries are compatible with the MiniMed™ 780G system. It is recommended to use a Lithium-ion battery (F6) as they have been shown to have the longest battery life. Batteries should be stored at room temperature and not in a refrigerator or other cold locations.

The MiniMed™ 780G system does not differentiate between protein, fat, or carbohydrate. It automatically adjusts* and corrects sugar levels every 5 mins based off sensor glucose readings when in SmartGuard™ technology. Patients will still need to bolus in SmartGuard™ for meals. With Meal DetectionTM technology*, if the system detects a meal based on rise in sensor glucose levels, it automatically delivers stronger correction doses up to every 5 minutes§ for those occasional missed meal doses or undercounted carbs.
