The Aidex-X CGM System tracks glucose levels continuously throughout the day. A tiny sensor is inserted just underneath the skin using an applicator and secured with an adhesive patch. It measures glucose in the interstitial fluid (fluid between the cells) every minute for up to 15 days. This data is automatically transferred every minute via Bluetooth to the user's Linx CGM App on their mobile device (iOS and Android compatible).

• Individuals with Type 1 diabetes or insulin-treated Type 2 diabetes
• Adults aged 18 and older
• Patients requiring continuous glucose monitoring for tighter glycaemic control

Approximately 2-4 meters without obstruction.

Yes. The Linx CGM App allows you to share your real-time data with up to 20 followers. Followers can view your glucose levels and receive alerts for highs and lows. Visit the App's “Follow and Share” section to activate this function.

The sensor is an all-in-one device powered by a small internal battery built into the unit. This battery supplies power for both glucose sensing and wireless data transmission throughout the sensor's wear time. The battery is not replaceable, and the entire sensor unit is disposed of and replaced once it reaches its 15-day lifespan.

The sensor records and stores glucose data every one minute. This data is continuously transmitted via Bluetooth to a paired mobile device, where it is securely stored for ongoing monitoring and analysis on the LinX App.

No, Aidex-X is currently a stand-alone CGM System and is not compatible with insulin pumps.

The Aidex-X App on your mobile device can communicate with compatible smartwatches. With CGM watch integration, your glucose values can be visible with a glance at your wrist.

For more information on compatible watches and how to pair, consult the Compatible Watch section under your Aidex-X App profile.

Keep in mind that your smart watch communicates with your mobile device, and not the sensor. The watch needs to be in range with your mobile device in order to receive glucose data via Bluetooth.

The sensor measures glucose levels in the interstitial fluid (fluid between the cells), while a fingerstick, using a blood glucose meter, measures blood plasma glucose. There is a natural lag between sensor glucose and blood glucose levels, especially when glucose levels are changing rapidly.

It's important to focus on trends and patterns, not the exact glucose values.

• Airport: It is safe to wear with metal detectors and common electromagnetic interference. Avoid full-body scanners that use x-rays or millimetre-wave technology.
• Medical Imaging: Do not wear the sensor during MRI, CT scans or diathermy. These procedures can damage the device and affect accuracy.

Yes, the Aidex-X Sensor is water resistant (IP68) and can be worn during bathing, showering or swimming, up to a maximum depth of 1.5 metres for up to 30 minutes.

The Aidex-X Sensor is the innovative Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) technology brought to you by Homemed (Pty) Ltd. It is the smallest, all-in-one 15-day sensor in South Africa used to continuously monitor your glucose levels in the fluid between the cells. It automatically transfers glucose readings every minute to the Aidex-X App on your mobile device.

The sensor is designed to be worn on the back of the upper arm.

Up to 15 days.

The Aidex-X Sensor is the smallest all-in-one device in South Africa.

It is 22 mm in diameter and 4.22 mm thin. It is the size of a 50 cent coin.

No, the Aidex-X Sensor is an all-in-one device.

No, it is factory calibrated. Calibration is optional if:

• There's a ≥20% variance between your sensor and blood glucose reading
• Your symptoms don't align with the sensor reading

Calibration Guidelines:

• Calibration is optional and should only be performed if there is a ≥20% variance between your sensor and blood glucose reading and/or your symptoms don't align with the sensor reading.
• If you need to calibrate a sensor, kindly note:
• It is best done during stable glucose periods (e.g., fasting in the morning) or when you see a horizontal trend arrow on the Home page of the Aidex-X App
• Avoid calibration 15 minutes after meals, insulin, or exercise when glucose levels are changing rapidly
• Do not calibrate if the sensor reading is below 5 mmol/L or above 15mmol/L
• Avoid calibrating more than once a day
• Do not calibrate within the first 24 hours of sensor wear
• Ensure calibration is saved successfully — look for the red blood droplet icon on the graph on the App's home page

• Select the “Finger Stick” tab at the bottom of the LinX App home page.
• Enter your blood glucose value, as measured with your glucometer within 5 minutes
• Select the appropriate “Recording Period.”
• Select “Calibrate” once.

If successfully saved and calibrated, a red blood droplet will appear on the graph on the App's home page

If the value is only saved (not calibrated), a green blood droplet will appear — this will not align the sensor and blood glucose readings but only save the value.

1- Once your sensor is inserted, tap thePersonal Profileicon (top right corner).

2- Select “Pairing” from the menu.

3- A list of nearby sensors will appear — choose the sensor that matches theserial numberdisplayed on your sensor box.

4-Tap “Pair” to complete the connection.

5- All previously used sensors will be stored under “Historical Devices.”

6- Only one email address can be paired with a sensor at a time. If you wish to change your email address during sensor wear, you will need to unpair the current one first, then pair the sensor with the new email address.
