What Is Linx CGM?
Linx is a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system that helps you understand how your glucose changes throughout the day.
Instead of single measurements, Linx provides continuous, real-time glucose data, allowing you to see patterns related to food, physical activity, stress, and sleep.
How Linx CGM Measures Glucose?
Linx CGM measures glucose in the interstitial fluid — the fluid between the body’s cells.
This is the same scientifically validated method used by modern CGM systems.
Because glucose moves from the bloodstream into interstitial fluid, readings may show a short delay (5–15 minutes) during rapid changes. This is normal and expected.
Sensor Wear & Daily Life
- Sensor wear time: up to 15 days
- Warm-up period: approximately 60 minutes
- Calibration: not required for normal use
- Water resistance: IP68 (suitable for daily activities)
Most users report that once applied, the sensor is barely noticeable during daily life.
Sharing Glucose Data with a Caregiver
Linx CGM allows you to share glucose data with:
- a family member,
- a caregiver,
- or a healthcare professional.
This can be useful for support, safety, or discussions about lifestyle or health decisions.
In this video, you’ll see:
- how to enable data sharing in the app,
- how invited users can view your glucose trends.
Understanding Accuracy & Calibration
Linx CGM is designed to provide reliable glucose trend information without the need for routine finger-prick calibration.
Like all CGMs:
- pressure on the sensor (e.g. sleeping on it) can temporarily affect readings
- readings may be less stable during the first 24–48 hours
Linx CGM Calibration (Optional)
When and How Calibration Can Be Used? Although Linx CGM does not require calibration, this video explains:
- when calibration may be useful
- how to perform it correctly
- when calibration should be avoided
Calibration should only be performed when glucose levels are stable and not during the first 24–48 hours of sensor use.
