Want to buy me a coffee, you can use "UA-cams Thanks" next to the share button :) Thanks for everyone's support. Means the world to me. Note: The official name for Activity powered by HypoProtect is "The Activity Feature".
Cool! The one hour predictability is a real good start. This will be great for the “dawn phenomenon” too.
Absolutely!
Thx so much! I had just been diagnosed type 1 last week, I was so confused and sad about it. But after seeing this video it make me feel like my life won't be much different in the future 🙂 .
You are so lucky this tech is available to you now, it will literally save you from so many complications in the future.
As always, love the video! Thanks for the info!
Thanks for watching!
Came here SPECIFICALLY for your video! Thanks love
Thanks so much for watching 👏🏻🔥
This is amazing, we are waiting for this with excitement.
Waiting to be available here in Switzerland🇨🇭
I am so excited! As a long-term Podder and Dexcom user this is the best news!
Awesome! Any idea when it may be available in Canada 🇨🇦? I need to upgrade my pump, wondering if I should wait for this!
Just got mine and this was the first vid I watched
Haven't heard on how the G6 transmitter battery life will be affected by continual communication with the Omni 5. Any info would be appreciated!
Thanks Nerdabetic - great video as always. Has the Libre Freestyle 3 be mentioned?
No. Not at this stage.
Hey there, I use the DIY closed Loop system (not approved by the FDA) with my OmniPod and G6 CGM. The screen for that system, shows your predicted BS as a number, so I am wondering if this system does that as well, or if it just shows the arrow predicting the trend?
Love your enthusiasm! Do you know if there are any other pumps that can be used like this Omnipod 5 (hybrid closed loop)? I think it’s the best thing ever.
Hahaha thanks! I have a video about all commercial hybrid closed loop systems which can guide you through all of them.
You have a very good knack for presenting this information and keeping it in digestible clips
I enjoy your videos
Oh thank you so much! That’s so nice. I love making these videos
This is awesome! Great upgrade insulet Corp..👍
Curious! Will you go over to Android or use the PDM and wait for iOS version of the app?
The official name for Activity powered by HypoProtect is ‘The Activity Feature’.
I am really keen to try the omnipod - I want my consultant to prescribe it. Do you have any tips for getting it prescribed.
Great to hear these news. I'm so excited for the smartphone control, can't wait for it. Cheers from Italy :)
Thanks for watching! Cheers from Uk 😁
Sai mica qualcosa su quando potrebbe arrivare in Italia?
@@albepatata Purtroppo no, solitamente quando viene approvato negli Stati Uniti serve un annetto che lo approvi anche l'Europa. Speriamo che entro fine anno sia già qui.
@@Aragorn8998 capito grazie
I get my next pump in September, and I was thinking of the Omnipod, but I don’t think I’ll be getting the 5 as I’ll be getting it September, shame really, but next time.
I hope it launches well for them.
OK I have the iPhone watch and iPhone but I can’t take my iPhone into work but I’m allowed to wear my watch while I be able to control it with my watch?
I'm not a fan of giving up control to my dexcom. My dexcom can sometimes be off by as much as 50. I would like to know if you get hypos with the omni. My A1C is high and my endo is pushing the omni, so far I've refused. The refusal is due to insurance and cost, the operational issue, it seems too complicated, total lack of able to understand after talking to a diabetic nurse and lots of googling.
I just updated my omnipod classic to the pod . I'm trying to download the omnipod 5 to my s.10 note plus . But it won't let me download. My question is did i hear and understood what you said is my omnipod 5 meter must be off . I know my dexcom meter had to be off for my omnipod 5 , so trying to get it right . Thank you 😊 have blessed weekend
I'm still wondering what the hold up is with combining the pod or any pump with an inegrated cgm. They're both on your body for 3 days why not combine them? my guess is when the pump distributes insulin it would affect cgm readings. Great info ty! I'll be talking with endo soon!
Given that the instructions for Dexcom have a minimum distance that it should be from the pump site I think your guess is right they must interfere with each other. It would be super cool if they could be combined though.
Thx a lot for such great & informative video! Is there any way to purchase Omnipod 5 from US through any online platform??
Hi can you connect dexcom to the pod and also conect dexcom to a mobile aswell, or does dexcom only connect to one or the other
Will there be any new video on the eversense FDA approval that came in ?
Could this system be connected to more than one monitoring device or can it only be connected to one ?
First of al, thanks for this great vid. Very informative. But i have a question. Like the libre system, is it possible for a parent to receive glucose level information on their phone? Our girl uses the libre 3 atm and I love the fact that I can follow her at home on my own phone. It that also possible with this combination? Or can you only receive the info on the phone who is connected to the pod?
yes you can, There are 2 apps called Display app and the other is called View app. The Display app is for the podder and the View app is for other people that wants to see the info of the podder 👍🏽
Will it work only with dexcom or also with libre 3
Great info!
thanks for the info
Do you know when it will come to Europe?
Do you know if you switch to Omnipod 4 (in the summer my current NHS pump is up for renewal), when Omnipd 5 comes to the UK, you will be allow to switch from 4 to 5. I currently have a Dana pump, Android phone, Libre, MiaoMiao, Nighscout closed loop system which is wonderful, but the worry is there are lots of points of failure. Also is the Omnipod 4 closed loop with Dexcom currently using the Omnipd handset? Finally do you think the handset will be replaced with IOS App, I currently carry an old Android around as well as an iPhone.
This is unknown until Omnipod 5 is approved here. Sorry I have no information on this but I do not want to speculate
Thanks for your wonderful videos! 2 questions from me. We live in the UK and our 3 year old son is on a Omnipod dash trial now for 3 months. Question 1) Will the Omnipod 5 be available to children this age? 2) In the UK, once you decide on a pump, you sort of need to stick to it for 4 years due to funding restrictions. If we went ahead with the Dash, when the 5 is available, could we switch?
Hello Mindori for Q #1 is intended for the management of type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons 6 years of age and older. For Q 2 is better to contact your insurance and verify if you are able to upgrade once the new device is available
This information is not known yet so I can’t comment. We will know this when Omnipod 5 is approved in the U.K.
I’m absolutely Loving my Omnipod5!! The ability to not have to physically inject insulin multiple times per day is fantastic! The automated mode makes my life so much easier. I highly, highly recommend!
Can we use the same pdm for dash?
I'm curious about what your number runs, and do you have hypos? Or is the biggest attraction this just due to not taking injections?
If your basal rates are not set accurately (i.e. less basal) will Omnipod 5 automatically setup correct basal ?
Why is the target range so high! Very annoying when I have to add on extra carbs to make my own adjustments on my tslim. Phone control is dreamy though, definitely looking to change to omnipod 5 when my renewal time arrives. What is the situation of changing phone? Will you have to change patch when you set up a new phone or can you reconnect with the new phone after disconnecting from old?
Great question on changing phones- at the moment, you would need to do that when you changing your omnipod as each pods connects with one device ( like your old phone). On target, 110 mg/dL is in line with other closed loops. Personally, I focus on ‘time in happiness’- does the system reduce my burden and allow me to make diabetes a smaller part of my life but I completely understand that 110 mg/dL might be too high for you. I’m sure they working on allowing more customisation in the future.
If your basal rates are not set accurately (i.e. less basal) will Omnipod 5 automatically setup correct basal ?
Nice innovation. Hope other manufacturers also get their loops approved fro mobile use
Yes absolutely! It is something most companies are working on.
Your so great to put out such great info for us-diabetics. I’m curious about the cost of Omnipod5? And something I always wondered about, …my pmd is freestyle, made by Abbott. Now I am able to use freestyle Libre’ (much more affordable for me) also made by Abbott. I very surprised there is not a loop system between Omnipod & Libre’. I would have thought they would be to first to have an affordable system. I pray for the future!
It's because Abbott is late to the party, Libre 3 has just recently been released. No surprise there
Pricing has not been shared yet. Omnipod has announced that they working on integrating Libre into their system but no timing information at this point. It might be a while.
Great info and there is no doubt all of these devices are better than multiple injections per day. For me I do not see the logic of having to have a 3rd piece. Medtronic definitely had some drawbacks but you can't accidentally leave home and be unable to manage your condition because the pump and sensor do everything! I can leave home without my phone, rare but it happens. I can leave home without a PDM.
That’s why options are so important.
That it always keeps you at 6.1 mmol seems like a disadvantage to me or not? Does that mean you can't go lower through their system? Personally, through the night I am 4.5 to 5 mmol. going at like 6 in the night is a bit high. Does that also mean that after a meal you don't drop lower than 6? Or am I just seeing this wrong? Is there a option to turn this off?
I’m guessing that is only for the automated mode as a safeguard to have a little buffer room. You could probably turn off automation and go lower yourself.
Anyone know what the camra thing is on the back of the device?
I am curious about the pricing of Omnipod 5. Typically an insulin pump is around $6500.00 in Canada and you need the supplies to go with it. So what are you paying for with Omnipod 5, if you are using your phone can you just go to the drugstore and buy individual pods and avoid the $6500.00 price tag? Fill me in Nerdabetic! Love your channel.
does it work with Apple Watch thru you iPhone
I think this is great…. I’m trying to get mine. I just wish it was smaller a bit more discreet.
I can't wait for it to be available here in the Netherlands! It will definitely be better than the DASH, I hope!
Same for UK!
@Nerdabetic I've been offered the omnipod on the NHS but I don't want to jump in as there's the 4 year commitment,i dont expect you know exactly when we will have it here in the uk but if you were me in my position what would you do ? Like are we looking at a year or longer ? Thanks mate for any help
@@palaHD the problem I have here is that they see it as 1 pump (the current version) and you won't get the next version untill the 4 years are up. Which I think is ridiculous since the bulk of the cost is in the pods and not the cheap arse phone. Especially when they let you use the app.
Q i thought omnipod don’t need a Sensor it has in?
Are there any prospects for Omnipod (or ANY infusion system) to gain approval for U-500 insulin? I have good control of my type 2 with MDI, but it takes well over 200 units daily (like 230-250) - going through 2 infusion pumps per day isn't very practical, and I'm not very interested in going off label. Still 6 to 8 injections/day is a real pain in the...belly.
Not to my knowledge but this is an incredibly important point. I will see if I can get any information for you.
Drs can prescribe it off label
@@SharpLife4 U500 is a fairly dangerous formulation, and not a straight 5:1 substitution for U100. Just as we all have slightly different activity curves for each "brand" of regular U100 (human replicate, analog, manufacturer), U500 is generally quite different and stacking is much more difficult to calculate and manage since the curve is generally much longer and more complex: it's not the straight 25%/hour that most of us use for U100. With U500 it's more like 25% 1st hour, 15% 2nd & 3rd, then 10% (or less) per hour to exhaustion. With MDI that can be managed with some difficulty, but not so much with continuous dosing. If the infusion software doesn't know what it's doing...well, that's a risk that neither ME nor my Endo want to take. Six or 8 daily injections (U100) is inconvenient and I still have occasional "dips" that need (oral) glucose/carb correction, but I've never felt the need to maintain a rescue injector - and don't want to ever feel that threatened by my therapy/treatment regime. Plus, I'm at 5.5 HbA1c on MDI; as my doctor says "Your A1c is normal: we don't mess with success." We certainly don't want to take unneeded risks when inconvenient is working this well.
After all, if the pump makers and regulators thought there was a safe and effective way to do it, it wouldn't be off label.
@@David-ji7qh my wife uses u200 off label but through a dr. I do not know anything about u500. I only thought maybe check with a dr. Due to rashes she often has to change the pump after 2 days as well
@@David-ji7qh her insulin also absorbs very different than how you suggest. It stops working after just a couple hours
Thank for the info. My 4 year old daughter was diagnosed 3 months ago and we have been looking at which patch pump would be best. What do you know about the Nano patch pump and how does it compare to the omnipod?
Why would you start a 4 year old just newly diagnosed on a closed loop pump or any pump? I mean, does she have an endo who's even approved of this? First thing, get a Dexcom...and wait for her body to settle.
The pump has been strongly recommended by her diabetes team (Nhs) they advises all under fives to use a pump because of their age. Better management better quality of life. My daughter hates the needles so if I can do 1 in 3day instead of 15+ it’s already worth doing. What am I waiting to settle? She is T1 and will always need insulin regardless of how it is given.
@@sharooney I'm fully aware, I'm a type 1. it's disconcerting people don't realize what a pump really is, it's just a big syringe pumping insulin. it's no better or easier than shots, one's adjusting pump basal rates. ISF, ICR's all the time. Type 1 diabetes is not linear or stagnant. Most people go on pumps to control their basal rates, usually b/c of DP or heavily active - athletic, etc..Can't imagine putting a 4 year old on a pump especially just diagnosed. There's NO way she could even be stable right now. Everyone thinks going on a pump is easy..IT IS NOT; tubes can come out, clog, pods can come off, not good absorption, scar tissue, painful inserts, rashes from adhesives. no way in hell any endo I know would put a newly Dx only 3 months baby on a pump, or even an adult for that matter. SHE'S JUST DIAGNOSED! My god, do you even know what you're doing at this point. Who's gonna be administering the pump, PDM, etc? Does she wear a Dexcom. do that first. I'm 10 years into this Type 1 nightmare, and it is a nightmare. Everything changes insulin needs, ESPECIALLY ESPECIALLY WITH A GROWING CHILD, SHE'S JUST A BABY. Do you know anything about pumps b/c I think you're not understanding the work involved. IT IS NOT EASIER!
@@sharooney IT'S BECAUSE OF THEIR AGE THEY SHOULD NOT BE ON A PUMP, ESPECIALLY NEWLY DIAGNOSED. Insulin needs at this point aren't even set. Well, honestly they never ARE. Type 1 is a damn nightmare! I'M SORRY BUT this is simply a lie; no endo i know would even put a teenager or an adult on a pump (especially a 4 years old) who's JUST BEEN DIAGNOSED. is her preschool teacher going to be administering her pump, is she trained. who's gonna calculate her carbs and bolus her? NONSENSE!
@@christopherone1 take a deep breath. Do you have a child with Type 1? Stop being so dramatic. I did shots for 10 years. The Omnipod and Dexcom is 1000 times easier. Period
Thanks for the video! One thing I haven’t haven’t heard discussed yet (just listened to the Juicebox Podcast episode) is whether there will be a way to enter insulin taken outside the Omnipod, such as an Afrezza or IM dose. Or if not, will the Omnipod 5 be able to handle something like an Afrezza dose without getting completely messed up? Have you heard anything about that?
That’s a great question! Adding other insulin delivery information is something that most pumps don’t offer. I am not sure about Omnipod 5 but will try to find out for you.
@@Nerdabetic thank you so much! 🙏
Does the Afrezza work well for you? My endo won't even consider it.
Are there any informations about usage in hot climates ? We live between cities where the temperature could vary from 25°C up to 40°C, and we all know synthetic insulin can't support that high of a temperature. I wonder how the omnipod handles that problem, especially knowing that there might be similar climates in some states in USA
I never had this issue brought up with my endocrinologist in Florida where those temps are common. Lived there for 25 yrs too. I guess the omnipod may have some thermal protection in its design.
Is libre 3 support coming?
I am on the Omnipod dash system. I also use an iPhone. So this is not compatible for me as of yet. I was wondering if anyone else is having problems with the battery life on the PDM for Omnipod Dash? I charge it to 100% daily and it’s out of battery by the afternoon. I have gone through 3P DM‘s and they all do the same thing. Anyone else having trouble with battery life on their PDM with the dash system???
chances are it won’t be in Canada for another year but i’m very excited!! Thank you. I wonder what the plans are for connecting with the Libre?
Yes, partnership with Libre has been announced. Timelines are unknown yet.
Can it works with libre3 ?
I was so excited until I heard as an iPhone user if I want to go this route I’d have to use a pdm. I already have my hands full when I go out, let alone adding one more thing.
Hahaha
Really? You'd think that iPhones being one of the main compatible phones for Dexcom, they'd be compatible with this. That's literally the reason I got my son an iPhone.
i completely agree, hopefully it’s ready by the time it’s out!!!
Hey why is it a minimum of 110 for automated mode? That’s a bit high, I try to keep myself between 6 mmol/dl if possible (~73-110), which is much more like what healthy non-diabetics experience.
If this comes out in Australia I’ll ditch my tslim x2 in a heartbeat
Thank you for the info my friend! Will the Omnipod support the Freestyle Libre CGM system in the future?
Yes. Insulet publicly disclosed their partnership with Freestyle Libre to integrate Libre into Omnipods system. No timelines at the moment.
How does the algorithm for Omnipod 5 differ from T-Slim and Medtronic. Looper's seem to have a "more accurate" algorithm. I have a few friends using T-Slim and they love it but do express some disappointment as to bring down high blood sugars and one uses the "sleep" mode all day. I have used the Omnipod for 6 years. I attempted to use the Medtronic closed loops system for about 2 weeks. What a disaster. No support, alarms going off, bent canuala, yada yada yada. After the CGM this is the most exciting control item out there. I have had diabetes for 48 years so I go back to urine testing via a test tube. I couldn't be more thrilled and only wish it happened sooner.

Türkiye de var mı bu ürün?
Will omnipod 5 work with apple iPhone and applewatch in automatic mode?
It will work in automatic mode even without a phone (if you just use a PDM). But yes, in the future it will.
I have a quick question:
So, I currently do have the Omnipod 5, but I’m in a bit of a crisis.
We just got back from vacation, and I think we left the charger for it there. I’m struggling to find out what type/kind of charger to get to charge the PDM of the Omnipod 5. Could I use a regular Android charger, or does it have to be specific?
You should be completely fine with a normal Android charger (I assume it uses microUSB), but I would still call them to send you a new one.
@@triple7marc Received my Omnipod 5 Yesterday. Charger is a USB Type C, 5.0V 2.0A 10.0W. Pretty much like the fast charger for an Android phone.
@@dalesmaglik Yep, I got my OmniPod 5 a couple weeks ago!! How do you like it so far?
@@triple7marc There are a bunch of settings I need to find out more about. Going to see my trainer.
@@dalesmaglik It’s honestly very similar to the OmniPod DASH, so if you came from that it should be pretty easy to figure out on your own. If not, or if you just want more information, the trainer will help you 👍🏼
Will this affect the Omnipod Eros line? (I.e. will they discontinue it now that its 2 generations old?)
Omnipod Eros are not being withdrawn for now which is great news for me too 🙌🏻
Cool
They should allow Lyumjev u200, i need more than 200 units in 3 days.
What would the time frame be for Canada
FDA approval is used as a reference when submitting Omnipod 5 to Health Canada. Think of it as using your old manger as a CV reference. Now that Omnipod 5 has FDA approval, Insulet can submit it for Canadian approval.
Libre 3 is no Option? Just dexcom? And no Apple just Android?
At the moment only Dexcom G6. Phone control for Android. Libre integration and iPhone support have both been announced but no timelines.
Will it support G7 when it gets released?
G6 only for now
Thank you. I’d love it were 3 cc capacity instead of 2 cc. I’d have to be changing it every day and a half.
Oh you mean 300 units? Yeah.
Ask your dr about u200 insulin. Double concentration
@@SharpLife4 I sure will. Thanks
@@SharpLife4 But.......Is the Omnipod 5 authorized to use U200 insulin? Does the computer know to cut all of the insulin doses plus and minus by half when injecting them into your body? The Omnipod 5 is an automatic pump to keep your blood sugars at a set target. It changes the amount of basal based on the blood sugar reading from the Dexcom6. If your blood sugar is trending up, its computer will say give .15 units every five minutes. Of U100 insulin. But if you are using U200, you really only need .075 units. The Omnipod 5 has to be programmed to use U200 insulin instead of U100 insulin. Or have an option to choose. Or maybe the software will learn how much your blood sugar moves based on the amount of insulin given and figure things out over time. Maybe.
@@russellseaton2014 I have the regular Omnipod. You have to double some settings and half down settings. Dr was very clear it had to be set up by a nurse who know how to do it that it. It’s prescribed off label. You can’t just tell the pump and it’s u200. You have to set it up as those your dose is half and down settings are Double for the right equations. But it’s only advised through the dr but works well. Many things can be done off label. Like how I wife uses metformin in type one diabetes.
Exercise causes my bg to skyrocket lol
This is really good news technology for diabetes is improving at a fast rate
Yes! Incredibly good news
I'm not sure about any of this. My son recently got diagnosed. The fact that you can't use the reader in tandem with phone control would not work for my situation at home. He's 7 and I'm not giving him a phone yet.
All this feels so overwhelming.
You probably need a smartwatch based solution.
Android based smartwatch can work up to 48h with always on display.
Yeah phone to a 7 year old could be tricky. PDM might be the best option.
Thanks God is aprove
Sooooo exciting!!
Please do a video about the new Senseonics 180 day sensor!! It's so exciting 🙌🏻
Blood sugar control is still way off with pumps. Averages 30-50 over normal is no good
You only mention USA and Europe, please include Canada when discussing OMNIPOD 5
scheduling. Thank you from a present OmniPod 4 user in Canada.
Insulet has not mentioned anything about other territories hence why I did not mention anything about it. I will be sure to do so if there is any information about it. Thanks for watching
When will it release
Limited release in the US in already ongoing. Full release timelines are unknown yet.
You can do the same with Omnipod Dash and Android APS 3.0. :) #WeAreNotWaiting
Its SCI-FI for us in Bosnia 😞
Why are so few phones approved. There are about 10 androids. And they are all older phones.
Only things I need is iPhone app and bolus button😩
I wonder how omnipod 5 calculates IoB without a phone.🤔
The entire system is on the pod. The pod does all calculations not the phone.
@@Nerdabetic
It's not the entire system on pod as a few parts are missing: enter carbs, alarms, change activity profile.
It's more like a very advanced fallback in case your phone is discharged or out of range. Which is definitely a new level of safety. Also it can be useful for physical activities but still I'd prefer to have a control panel on smart watch.
Looking forward to see distributed smart insulin delivery system (pod, cgm, smart watch, smart band, phone, smart glasses, cloud app) which works in any connection chain providing max time in range with minimum interactions.
Thanks for the review. You're doing a great job 👍
I wonder when this technology will appear in Russia😅hopefully in this millennium
Hahah I’m sure!
I need Spanish translation🤪
You’re cute lol
inshoeelin. yeah..i said it.
