FreeStyle Libre 2 Reader
Product Details
The FreeStyle Libre 2 Reader is a compact, rechargeable handheld device designed to display glucose information from a compatible FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus Sensor. A quick scan provides the user’s current sensor glucose reading, trend arrow, and recent glucose history without requiring a compatible smartphone.
Product Overview
The FreeStyle Libre 2 Reader provides a dedicated way to access continuous glucose monitoring information from the FreeStyle Libre 2 system.
When used with a compatible FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus Sensor, the reader allows users to check their glucose by holding the device near the sensor for a brief scan. The reader then displays the current sensor glucose value, a trend arrow showing the direction glucose is moving, and recent glucose history.
Its compact touchscreen design makes the reader convenient to carry throughout the day. It may be particularly useful for individuals who do not have a compatible smartphone, prefer not to use a mobile application, or want a separate device dedicated to glucose monitoring.
The reader also supports optional high-glucose, low-glucose, and signal-loss alarms when properly configured and used according to Abbott’s instructions.
