If you have a pacemaker or another implanted electronic medical device, extra caution is recommended when using any CGM, including Sibionics GS3.
What manufacturers say
Sibionics GS3
Sibionics has not evaluated the GS3 CGM for use alongside implanted electronic medical devices and does not make a specific compatibility claim.
What this means for you
Because CGMs have not been formally tested with pacemakers:
There is no confirmed evidence of interference
There is also no guarantee of compatibility
If you have a pacemaker (or a similar implanted device), we strongly recommend that you speak with your cardiologist or healthcare provider before using a CGM.
If you choose to use a CGM with a pacemaker
If your healthcare provider advises that CGM use is appropriate for you:
Monitor how you feel closely
Use a finger-prick blood glucose test if readings don’t match symptoms
Seek medical advice immediately if you notice anything unusual
Important note
Vively isn’t able to provide medical clearance or confirm compatibility between CGMs and pacemakers. This decision should always be made in consultation with your healthcare provider, who understands your individual medical history.
In summary
CGMs haven’t been formally tested with pacemakers
Sibionics GS3 has not made a compatibility claim
Always consult your cardiologist before using a CGM if you have a pacemaker
