To obtain patient reports, Dexcom G6 Pro session data from the reader must be uploaded to a patient’s file in Dexcom Clarity. You must have a Dexcom Clarity clinic account to add a patient and upload the data from the reader.

No, Dexcom G6 Pro does not work with Dexcom Studio. 

Yes, Dexcom G6 Pro works with Dexcom Clarity.

The reader is required to extract data from Dexcom G6 Pro only in blinded mode.

In unblinded mode, if the patient successfully sets up the Dexcom G6 app on his or her compatible smartphone* during the Dexcom G6 Pro session, the HCP can access the patient’s data by initiating the share code through Dexcom Clarity. Refer to the Dexcom Clarity User Guide for Clinics under the “Patient Data Sharing” section.

*Patient must have a compatible smart phone for an unblinded mode session. To view a list of compatible devices, visit dexcom.com/compatibility

The Dexcom G6 Pro reader* is used by the HCP 1) to verify the start of a Dexcom G6 Pro session and confirm that the transmitter is working properly before the patient leaves the clinic, and 2) to extract data* from the transmitter during or at the end of the Dexcom G6 Pro session. The reader is used to upload patient data to Dexcom Clarity for use in more comprehensive reports.

*The Dexcom G6 Pro reader will not display CGM values and is for office use only.

Each Dexcom G6 Pro sensor can be worn for up to 10 days.

The Dexcom G6 Pro transmitter records data up to 10 days. At the end of the session, the HCP has up to 30 days from the CGM insertion date to extract data from the transmitter, using the reader. The Dexcom G6 Pro transmitter is disposable and cannot be reused.

Each Dexcom G6 Pro sensor box includes the following:

• One time use applicator/sensor
• Disposable, one-time use transmitter

If you prescribe your patient Dexcom G6 Pro for unblinded use, the patient will need to download the Dexcom G6 app (version 1.6.1 or later) for home use with their compatible smart device.*

The Dexcom G6 Pro reader box includes the following: 

• Reader^†
• Case
• Charger

Blinded mode allows you to capture your patients’ normal behavior without the influence of real-time CGM. Some of your patients also may not have a compatible smartphone, so they can’t use the Dexcom G6 app. Other patients may not be as interested in following their glucose patterns on a daily basis. Blinded mode allows a greater range of patients to experience Dexcom G6 Pro, even if they are not as actively involved during a session. In blinded mode, you may also use Dexcom G6 Pro to assess glycemic variability for patients with or without diabetes. In comparison, unblinded mode may only be used for patients with diabetes.

When used in blinded mode, Dexcom G6 Pro sends a patient’s glucose readings to the clinic-owned Dexcom G6 Pro reader, instead of a patient’s compatible smartphone. After the sensor session is over, you can share the patient’s results with them using the Dexcom Clarity reports.

Some of your patients with diabetes may be interested in learning more about their daily glucose readings and trends. They may want to try Dexcom before investing in a personal CGM to see how the alarm and alerts work, or get a feel for the system as a whole. As long as your patient with diabetes has a compatible smartphone,* they can use the Dexcom G6 app and experience Dexcom G6 Pro in unblinded mode.
