Medtronic plc (Dublin, Ireland) introduced the MiniMed Mio Advance infusion set to all Medtronic insulin pump customers in the U.S. The MiniMed Mio Advance infusion set is the newest addition to the MiniMed portfolio of infusion sets and gives people using insulin pumps an optimal user experience with fewer steps.
The MiniMed Mio Advance infusion set is inserted in only four steps — individuals simply peel, pinch, place, and press to insert the infusion set.
The company says that the design of the MiniMed Mio Advance infusion set enables:
- One-handed insertion and flexibility to access more insertion sites1 on the body such as the lower back or back of the arm.
- A fully hidden needle before, during, and after insertion.
- Consistent insertion force with the built-in insertion device (called a “serter”).
- Fewer insertion steps.
- Rotation of sites for better skin health and insulin absorption.
