Tandem Mobi: A Compact Insulin Pump Designed to Fit Your Routine
The Tandem Mobi insulin pump is a small, wearable insulin delivery system designed to give people using insulin more flexibility in how they manage their diabetes. Its compact size and wearable design make it an option for people looking for an insulin pump that can fit more easily into their daily routine.
What Is the Tandem Mobi?
Tandem Mobi is a wearable insulin pump that delivers rapid acting insulin throughout the day based on the user’s prescribed settings. It is designed to be worn on the body and can be controlled using compatible technology, giving users another way to manage insulin delivery without relying solely on injections.
One of the notable features of the Tandem Mobi is its compact size. Because it is designed with portability in mind, users have flexibility in how they wear and carry their pump throughout the day.
How Does It Work?
Like other insulin pumps, Tandem Mobi delivers insulin through an infusion set. The pump can provide continuous insulin delivery and can also deliver additional insulin doses when needed, according to the user’s prescribed treatment plan.
Tandem Mobi can also be used with compatible continuous glucose monitoring technology and Tandem’s automated insulin delivery features when prescribed and appropriate for the individual. These systems are designed to use glucose information to help adjust insulin delivery.
Designed for Everyday Life
Diabetes management happens throughout the day, not just at doctor’s appointments. Work, school, exercise, travel, meals and everyday activities can all affect a person’s routine.
Having an insulin pump that is compact and wearable can give some users another option for incorporating insulin delivery into their daily lives.
As with any diabetes technology, the right device depends on individual needs, treatment plans, insurance coverage and recommendations from a healthcare professional.
