First hybrid closed loop system in the world using FreeStyle Libre 3 Sensor now available

The first hybrid closed loop system that uses a FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor is available in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland. 

It will also be launched in other countries in Europe and in Australia in the forthcoming months, developers have announced.

The performance of the interoperable CamAPS FX hybrid closed-loop algorithm with FreeStyle Libre 3 glucose sensor and mylife YpsoPump insulin pump in a real-world setting has been published. CamAPS FX closed-loop algorithm is also compatible with the Dexcom G6 sensor.

Data from 100 people using the system over a 28-day period was analysed. The results show that time in range (3.91- 10.0 mmol/L) was 72.6 ± 11.1 per cent overall and time below range (<3.9mmol/L) was 3.1 per cent (1.4-5.1) (median [interquartile range]).

The findings said: “This real-world analysis suggests that the performance of Cambridge hybrid closed-loop app with this glucose sensor is comparable to other commercially available hybrid closed-loop systems.”
