How to go back to school with myLoop

Getting ready to go back to school? Whether kindergarten or primary school, you might feel full of uncertainties about your child's diabetes management. myLoop cares for your child and offers you a remote "window" into glucose management.

As you fill your child's school backpack with books, pencils, snacks, and diabetes supplies, your head fills up with worries:

• Will the school nurse be familiar with our diabetes management?

• Will teachers know what to do in case of an emergency?

• Will our child feel “normal” and not singled-out for their type 1 diabetes?

You want the best for your child. You want them not only to be safe but also healthy and happy. You wish for your child a life unlimited by diabetes whether at home or at school.

Do you want to receive alerts if your child is out of range? With Companion remote monitoring, you can have peace of mind knowing your child is safe at school. Companion remote monitoring mirrors data from the user's CamAPS FX app, allowing you to keep an eye on your child’s glucose levels while they can focus on meeting new classmates, playing with friends or participating in other school activities. This added layer of comfort and support, even when your child is not present, helps you to let go and trust myLoop.

Additionally, caregivers at school – such as teachers and nurses – feel confident when it comes to diabetes management, which in turn helps keep your child safe and healthy when they are away from home.

myLoop automatically adjusts insulin delivery every 8 - 12 minutes using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) data and a 2.5 to 4 hours prediction, so your child can be free to focus on learning just like the rest of their classmates.

Getting meal boluses right is another challenge for children and caregivers. CamAPS FX algorithm learns your child's patterns overtime and automatically compensates for over- or underestimation of the meal bolus. Furthermore, the option to preset meal carbs for bolus calculation supports your child in carb counting.

Managing glucose levels before, during, and after PE class can be a challenge due to the fluctuations in insulin sensitivity. With myLoop, changes in insulin requirements are accounted for automatically, helping keep your child in range.
