More freedom for them. More peace of mind for you.
Discover how the MiniMedTM 780G system helps make mealtimes and bedtimes easier for kids and families.
Get the info you need, at a glance
With the CareLinkTM Connect app, you can view continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and insulin dosing data as well as your latest Time in Range trends right on your phone. Share real-time sugar levels with up to five care partners, so your family and friends can help keep an eye on glucose levels throughout the day!
Plus, with the ability to customize the pump's alerts and alarms, you can sleep more soundly at night knowing the system will alert you if action is needed.
"With the CareLink Connect app, I can see everything. From my phone or from her pump, I can see where she's at and every micro dose it gives her." — Stacey
Let kids be kids
The daily routine of multiple injections, constant blood sugar monitoring, and tracking in logbooks can be exhausting. For a child with diabetes, it can also be an emotional roller coaster.
For T1D Abby and her mother, Maggie, switching to an automated insulin delivery (AID) system allowed them to spend more time connecting about school, friends, softball, and her latest art project, rather than managing her insulin injections.
"We’re thankful for the system we chose because they work together to keep her healthy, creative, and free — the way every nine-year-old should be!” — Maggie

Easier snacking
With Meal DetectionTM technology,† children can get automatic corrections every 5 minutes as needed to cover undercounted carbs or an occasionally missed meal dose.‡
Real-time sugar levels
The Instinct sensor, made by Abbott, sends CGM info to the pump and app every 5 minutes — so you can always see the numbers and where they’re headed.
Alerts when you need them
Customize your alerts and alarms so you can rest easy knowing the system will alert you if you need to take action.
Fewer pricks and pokes
With the ExtendedTM infusion set lasting up to 7 days and no fingersticks§ needed with SmartGuardTM technology, you get 96% fewer pokes than with multiple daily injections (MDI).◊
A pump as active as they are
Parents of children with type 1 diabetes often think opting for a tubed pump will limit their child’s active lifestyle. But not all insulin pumps are created equal!
Sara and her T1D son, Jackson, realized that the benefits of the MiniMedTM 780G system outweighed any potential downsides and didn’t impact Jackson’s ability to be active in sports at all! Jackson plays football, basketball, baseball, and pretty much anything else he can, with his pump by his side.
"We're getting to live everyday life like we did before diabetes, so he is just as much of an athlete as he was before. And he's actually a better athlete now — because he has insulin, his body's functioning fully." — Sara
