Omnipod® 5
Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) System is the first wearable, tubeless, hybrid closed loop system that integrates with the Dexcom G6, Dexcom G7, ad Freestyle Libre 2 Plus sensors, for people with type 1 diabetes aged 2 years and older requiring insulin.
Omnipod 5 System: Three Simple Parts
Controller + Pod + CGM/Sensor
Omnipod 5 Controller
The Omnipod 5 Controller allows you to monitor and control the Pod using Bluetooth® wireless technology.
Pod
Tubeless, wearable, and waterproof,** the Pod, with built-in SmartAdjust™ technology, sits right on your patient’s body and automatically§ adjusts insulin delivery for up to 3 days or 72 hours.
§Automated Mode requires compatible CGM Sensor
**The Pod has an IP28 rating for up to 7.6 metres (25 feet) for up to 60 minutes. The Omnipod 5 Controller is not waterproof. Please consult sensor manufacturer user guide for sensor waterproof rating.
Sensor
CGM sensor continuously sends glucose values to the Pod, so your patients can get real-time data—without the finger pricks†.
Omnipod 5's Algorithm: SmartAdjust™ Technology
Predicts
Glucose 60 minutes into the future
Adjusts
Insulin delivery using the selected Target Glucose
Delivers
Insulin doses every 5 minutes (as needed)
Always adjusting, so you don't have to.
Omnipod® 5 with SmartAdjustTM technology automatically adjusts to your patients' personal needs by increasing, decreasing, or pausing insulin delivery every five minutes—which may help protect against highs and lows.1,2

Improved Clinical Outcomes with Omnipod 5
Omnipod 5 improved glycaemic control in adults, adolescents and children with T1D in pivotal studies.1,2
76%
time in range (TIR) at a target of 6.1 mmol/L (110 mg/dL) in adults and adolescents (14–70 years) and 68% overall TIR in children (2- 13.9 years)1,2
HbA1c
was significantly reduced in very young children (2.0–5.9 years), children (6–13.9 years), adults and adolescents (14–70 years) by 0.5%, 0.7% and 0.4% (4.2, 6, and 7.8 mmol/mol) respectively1,2
33%
reduced time in hyperglycaemia in children and 24% in adults and adolescents1
60%
reduction in time in hypoglycaemia overnight and 46% overall in adults and adolescents1
Omnipod® 5 improved users’ quality of life in clinical studies3,4
- Parents of children using Omnipod 5 reported improvements in quality of life, sleep quality, confidence avoiding hypoglycaemia, and mental well-being3,4
- Adults using Omnipod reported reduction in diabetes distress and stress eating, confidence avoiding hypoglycaemia, and improved mental well-being3,4
In a 3-month clinical study, 3 cases of severe hypoglycaemia and 1 case of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) were reported in participants aged 6-70 years during Omnipod® 5 System use. These cases were not related to automated insulin delivery malfunction.1

Mean time in hyperglycaemic range (>10.0 mmol/L or >180mg/dL) as measured by CGM in adults/adolescents and children ST vs. 3-mo Omnipod 5: 28.9% vs. 22.8%; 44.8% vs 29.7%, P<0.0001, respectively.

Mean HbA1c: ST vs. Omnipod 5 use in adults/adolescents and children, respectively (7.16% vs 6.78% or 55 mmol/mol vs. 51 mmol/mol, P<0.0001; 7.67% vs 6.99% or 60mmol/mol vs 53 mmol/mol), P<0.0001). Average time above range (>10 mmol/L or >180 mg/dL) in children: ST vs. 3-month Omnipod 5 = 45.3% vs. 30.2%. Change is relative comparison. Average time above range (>10 mmol/L or >180 mg/dL) in adults: ST vs Omnipod 5: 32.4% vs. 24.7%. Change is relative. Mean time in hypoglycaemic range (<3.9 mmol/L or <70mg/dL as measured by CGM; 12AM - < 6AM) in adults as measured by CGM: ST: 2.07% vs. Omnipod 5: 0.82%, P<0.0001 Comparison is a relative change.
