It's easy to live a Flexible Life
..with Medtronic Insulin Pump Therapy

Medtronic CareLink Personal software is a secure, Web-based therapy management software that allows the discovery of patterns and problems that meter software and logbooks would not uncover.

Medtronic CareLink Personal software helps you to:
  • Have greater control by understanding the effects of insulin, carbohydrates, and exercise on your glucose levels
  • Effectively maximise your therapy by easily identifying patterns and problems
  • Work more productively with your healthcare provider by sharing detailed reports and making therapy and lifestyle changes
  • Get the full picture with continuous glucose monitoring data by revealing more low or high glucose patterns than fingerstick data

Understanding the effects of insulin dosage, eating habits, exercise routine, and medication on glucose levels is the key to improving your diabetes control. Seeing this cause and effect relationship in charts,
graphs, and tables allows you to better identify patterns and problems that can help you figure out the cause of your low and high blood glucose levels. With Medtronic CareLink Personal software, you are empowered to effectively maximise your therapy by working with your healthcare professional to reach your individual goals.
