doi: 10.4155/tde-2020-0055
Figure Lengend Snippet: The Omnipod 5 System consists of three components: (A) the pod with MPC algorithm which calculates micro-bolus insulin dose delivery every 5 min, (B) the Dexcom G6 CGM, which measures glucose values every 5 min in the interstitial fluid and sends the glucose information to the pod for use by the MPC algorithm, and (C) the Horizon PDM, which is used to program pump settings and deliver bolus insulin doses. The pod and the CGM communicate wirelessly with the PDM via the Horizon app and the Dexcom G6 app, respectively.
