Dexcom G7 system with phone, sensor, inserter and watch, on a green background


This week.. after a year of deliberations, the US FDA approves the newest product from Dexcom, the G7. This is a much smaller device, with all-in-one sensor and transmitter, shorter warm up time and many more new features.

Stacey talks with Dexcom’s Chief Operating Officer Jake Leach. They do a lighting round of questions to learn more about what was – and was NOT – approved here. It’s not exactly what’s already on the market in Europe.. and we look ahead to what’s next.

This podcast is not intended as medical advice. If you have those kinds of questions, please contact your health care provider.
