How to claim your AiDex Sensor
through your medical aid.

AiDEX™ Sensor

No scan is required. The AiDEX™ sensors continuously measure glucose levels in the interstitial fluid underneath the skin, every 5 minutes, for 14 days. AiDEX™ Sensors have a one hour warm-up time. The Sensors are factory calibrated, but optional calibration is possible (consult the calibration guideline). The all-in-one sensor and applicator allow for quick and easy insertion into the abdomen or back of the upper arm (consult the insertion guideline).
  • No scan is required
  • 1 hour warm-up time
  • Convenient one-push sensor insertion
The AIDEX™ sensor requires an AiDEX™ transmitter to record and transfer readings via Bluetooth to the AiDEX™ mobile App and compatible devices. The AiDEX™ App also allows users to:
    • Receive Real Time Alerts
    • Customise Alerts
    • Share readings and alerts with Caregivers
* Perform fingerstick blood glucose test if Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) reading does not match symptoms, when symptoms of hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia are present or when treatment decisions need to be made. ** Factory Calibrated, optional to calibrate if CGM reading does not match symptoms.

AiDEX™ is a real-time continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) that can be used for daily self-monitoring of glucose levels. AiDEX™ is indicated for people 14 years or older living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

The AiDEX™ CGMS consists of 3 main components:

  • AiDEX™ Sensor
  • AiDEX™ Transmitter
  • AiDEX™ Mobile App

AiDEX™ Transmitter

Reusable with a 4 year warranty. The AiDEX™ Transmitter records and transfers readings via Bluetooth to the AiDEX™ mobile App and compatible devices. The AiDEX™ transmitter is a once off purchase every 4 years. The transmitter is clicked on to a new sensor and powered by the sensor for 14 days. After 14 days, the transmitter is removed from the used sensor, and attached to the newly inserted sensor (consult the insertion guide). The size of the inserted sensor & transmitter is 36x22x8mm. The overall weight is less than 5.5g. The AiDEX™ CGMS is waterproof up to 1m for 30 minutes. The AiDEX™ CGMS can be discreetly worn under clothing. NOTE: Remove the Transmitter from the Sensor each time you remove the used Sensor. The Transmitter can be used repeatedly for up to 4 years. (See video below on how to remove the Transmitter)

AiDEX™ Mobile App

The AiDEX™ App allows users to view real-time glucose readings, to receive real-time alerts, to customise alert settings and to share readings and/or alerts with caregivers. The AiDEX™ App is android and iOS compatible, and can be downloaded following the below links
Users can personalise their low- and high alert glucose ranges. Alerts can be switched on or off and users can choose how they receive their alerts. The AiDEX™ App offers the following alerts:
  • Hi / Lo
  • Rising / Falling Fast
  • Urgent Low (preset to 3 mmol/L)
  • Transmitter Signal Loss
Patients can grant access to caregivers to follow their readings and alerts (consult the Share/Follow guideline).
