Commercial availability is expected to begin this fall. Tandem

“This integration marks the first time an AID system in Canada
is compatible with both Dexcom G7 and Dexcom G6 CGMs, demonstrating
our commitment to continued leadership in advancing AID systems and
offering choice,” said Mark Novara, executive vice president and
chief commercial officer of Tandem Diabetes Care. “We are proud to
celebrate more than 10 years of partnership with Dexcom through
this milestone that allows users in Canada to benefit from our #1
recommended insulin pump brand,† now with Dexcom's most advanced
CGM technology.”
“Studies have shown that an AID system powered by Dexcom CGM
allows people with diabetes to experience more time in range and
can help users reduce nighttime lows,”1 said André Côté, executive
vice president and general manager of Dexcom Canada. “Sensor
accuracy is key to automated insulin delivery, and we are thrilled
that Canadians using the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ
technology will soon be able to benefit from integration with
Dexcom G7, our smallest and most accurate CGM 2‡. This milestone
underscores the shared commitment between Dexcom and Tandem to
provide cutting-edge technology that empowers individuals with
diabetes to live better and feel better every day.”

sensor and transmitter, which is 60% smaller3 than Dexcom G6;

time4;
- A 12-hour grace period4 to replace finished sensors for a more
seamless transition between sessions and flexibility for when to

- Increased connectivity that Dexcom G7 offers with leading
digital health apps.

features:
- #1 Rated AID System in Canada* with Control-IQ
Technology – Uses data from the Dexcom CGM to predict glucose
levels 30 minutes ahead and automatically adjust insulin, if
needed, to help prevent highs and lows.

Profiles and optional settings for Sleep Activity or Exercise
Activity that adjust the range of treatment values.

Important Safety Information: The t:slim X2 insulin pump
with Control-IQ technology (the System) consists of the t:slim X2
insulin pump, which contains Control-IQ technology, and a
compatible continuous glucose monitor (CGM, sold separately). The
t:slim X2 insulin pump is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of
insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes
mellitus in people requiring insulin. The t:slim X2 insulin pump
can be used solely for continuous insulin delivery and as part of
the System. When used with a compatible CGM, the System can be used
to automatically increase, decrease, and suspend delivery of basal
insulin based on CGM sensor readings and predicted glucose values.
The System can also deliver correction boluses when the glucose
value is predicted to exceed a predefined threshold. The pump and
the System are indicated for use in individuals 6 years of age and
greater. The pump and the System are intended for single user use.
The pump and the System are indicated for use with NovoRapid,
Admelog, Trurapi, or Humalog U-100 insulin. The System is intended
for the management of Type 1 diabetes.
WARNING: Control-IQ technology should not be used by anyone
under the age of 6 years old. It should also not be used in users
who require less than 10 units of insulin per day or who weigh less
than 25 kilograms.
The System is not indicated for use in pregnant women, people on
dialysis, or critically ill users. Do not use the System if using
hydroxyurea.
Users of the pump and the System must: be willing and able to
use the insulin pump, CGM, and all other system components in
accordance with their respective instructions for use; test blood
glucose levels as recommended by their healthcare provider;
demonstrate adequate carb-counting skills; maintain sufficient
diabetes self-care skills; see healthcare provider(s) regularly;
