The Dexcom G6 is Dexcom’s latest generation of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system. Unlike previous generations, this CGM system is factory calibrated, so no finger pricks are required. The Dexcom G6 consists of a sensor, transmitter and display device (receiver and / or compatible mobile device). The system features a revamped one-button auto applicator and a sleek, discrete transmitter. The Dexcom G6 sends glucose readings every 5 minutes to a mobile device or Dexcom receiver.
