Freestyle Libre Sensor

The Freestyle Libre Sensor is a flash glucose monitoring system that’s used for the self-monitoring of glucose levels. Unlike the traditional method of pricking the fingertip, the Freestyle Libre sensor measures glucose levels in the interstitial fluid, using a sensor that sits just under the skin. It can update every minute and stores data every 15 minutes.

This sensor that is worn just under the skin is called Flash for short. It will continuously record glucose levels throughout the day and night. If glucose levels need to be checked at a specific time, simply scan the sensor whenever needs be.

Freestyle Libre Sensor Shortage

Since the beginning of 2020 there has been a seemingly ongoing supply issue with a Freestyle Libre Sensor shortage. People with Type 1 diabetes have been struggling to obtain or replace existing sensors to monitor their blood glucose levels.

The creator of the sensor has admitted to the delay in supply. Released in a statement, they said: “We are currently experiencing delays in fulfilling orders of the FreeStyle Libre sensors. The delay is two to three weeks from date of order.

“We are doing all we can to expedite shipments in an effort to minimise any interruptions and are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. You will receive an e-mail with a tracking number when the product is dispatched. This is the same information that our customer service team will be able to provide.”

Due to the Freestyle Libre Sensor shortage many people have reverted back to their old methods of tracking glucose levels, such as the fingertip blood prick. The Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee has recommended that pharmacists refer people back to their prescriber alternative.

Freestyle Libre Sensor UK

A common question we are asked is “How does the Freestyle Libre Sensor UK work?”

Each flash glucose monitor has two parts:

  • A sensor that is worn just under the skin.
  • A reader that is swiped over the senor to get both the sugar levels and trend of levels in the blood. It’s also possible to scan the sensor with a phone.

Each time the scan is used, it’s possible to access the last eight hours of sugar level readings. It’s also possible to Freestyle Libre Sensor Download Software and analyse the results to see patterns in sugar levels.

Once a sensor has been worn for fourteen days, a new one will need to be re-applied. Sensors are advised to be worn only on the arm and should not be placed in areas with a tattoo as this could impact the Freestyle Libre Sensor UK results.

Buy Freestyle Libre Sensor
