1.1. Important Safety Information
Read this entire manual before using your Continuous Glucose Monitoring System. If you do not understand something or
have any questions, please ask your Diabetes Management Team or another health care provider. Contraindications,
warnings, precautions, cautions, and other important safety information can be found in this User Manual.
This device is not designed to replace a blood glucose meter. The system must be used with a blood glucose meter in
compliance with regulations.
•Treatment decisions should not be based solely on results from this device. You must confirm with a blood glucose meter
before making therapeutic adjustments.
•Symptoms related to low or high blood glucose levels should not be ignored. If you have symptoms of low or high glucose,
use your blood glucose meter to verify the results.
•You should update the device’s calibration according to the instruction in this manual to ensure device performance. The
performance of the device when calibrated less frequently than the recommendation has not been studied.
•The CGM product should be used under the supervision of a physician.
•Always wash hands with soap and water before opening the sensor package. After opening the package, avoid touching
the adhesive area.
•Before inserting the sensor, always clean the skin at the sensor insertion location with a topical antimicrobial solution such
as isopropyl alcohol. Do not apply the sensor until the cleaned area is dry.
•Establish a rotation schedule for choosing each new sensor location. Avoid sensor locations that are constrained by
clothing, accessories, or subjected to rigorous movement during exercise.
•Avoid injecting insulin or placing an insulin pump infusion set within 3 inches of a sensor.
•The sensor is sterile in its unopened, undamaged package. Do not use any sensor if its sterile package has been previously
damaged or opened.
•For calibration you must enter the exact finger stick reading that your blood glucose meter displays. Enter all finger stick
readings for calibration within 5 minutes. Entering incorrect finger stick readings that occurred more than 5 minutes ago
will affect device performance.

Section 2. Product Introduction
2.1. Intended Use
The device is indicated for detecting trends and tracking patterns in adults with diabetes. The system is intended for use by
patients.
This device is not designed to replace a blood glucose meter. The device must be used with a blood glucose meter.
Treatment decisions should not be based solely on results from the system. Treatment decisions must be confirmed with a
blood glucose meter before making therapeutic adjustments.
Indications
The system is indicated for detecting trends and tracking patterns in adults with diabetes. It is intended for use by patients
2.2. Contraindications
CT-Scan, X-Ray or MRI: If you must be examined with CT, X-ray, or MRI imaging, remove the transmitter and sensor. Start a
new sensor after the examination.
2.3. System Introduction:
Principle of Operation
The sensor works through enzymatic electrochemical reactions with glucose. The enzyme, glucose oxidase, allows glucose
to be converted into an electronic signal. The receiver converts the sensor signal to a glucose reading that is displayed to
the user.
The CT10 allows you to continually see your readings every 3 minutes for up to 10 days.
Reagents
Glucose oxidase. The enzyme glucose oxidase is derived from a microorganism Aspergillus niger purified and dried
according to Type VII-S guidelines. Direct tissue contact with the glucose oxidase is prevented by an outer sensor membrane
layer, therefore the risk of tissue reactions from glucose oxidase is considered to be minimal.
2.4. System Components
The system consists of three parts (Fig.1), a glucose sensor, a transmitter, and a receiver.
Figure 1. System: Sensor, Transmitter, and Receiver
•The sensor is a four electrode flexible tiny strip assembled with an inserter, packed in a sterile package for direct use.

•Additional Supplies Needed:
Users should have a blood glucose meter readily accessible to make therapeutic adjustments and calibrate the CGM.
Users can choose to receive data using the receiver or POCTech CGM App. Users can download the POCTech CGM App
through the mobile application market. Used with the transmitter and sensor, the POCTech CGM App can collect, analyze,
transform and display the current data collected by the transmitter, store the collected data and generate reports.
Users can get the latest version of User Manual of POCTech CGM App at www.poctechcorp.com
Users can contact the supplier to obtain POCTech Care software for Windows, which is used to input the stored CGM data
into the computer through the USB cable to display the glucose data collected by the CGM.

Sensor ON/OFF:
To turn transmitter data communication link ON/OFF (Fig.4): In normal operation mode, the “Sensor On” item is not
necessary. The sensor/transmitter connection initiates via the “Scan to search” operation. When a sensor is in data link
status, the “Sensor On” item is not operable. The “Sensor Off” is available only for particular cases when the monitoring
needs to be interrupted, or stopped before the end of the nominal 10-day period.
The “Sensor Signal” is for sensor status check purposes (trouble shooting) when abnormality is suspected.
The Sensor Menu can be opened by long pressing the icon (more than 3 seconds).
