Introduction

Thank you for choosing Medtronic Diabetes as your partner in helping you and your patients

better manage diabetes therapy. We believe you will benefit from CareLink® Pro software’s

leading edge technology and simple, menu-driven user interface.

CareLink Pro allows you to acquire, store and report patient treatment and diagnostic data. You

can also use it to access pump, meter, and sensor-based glucose data your patients have

uploaded to CareLink® Personal, a web-based therapy management system that works with

CareLink Pro.

Features

CareLink Pro is a diabetes therapy management software for a personal computer (PC). It includes

these features:

• Patient records can be created to store data gathered from a patient’s device as well as therapy

data from their CareLink Personal account.

• Data from insulin pumps, monitors, and blood glucose meters can be sent to the system, stored,

and then used to generate reports.

• As an option, it interfaces with the CareLink Personal system, allowing access to device data

patients have stored there. This is ideal for creating current reports between office visits, and

may make the need to read device data during office visits unnecessary.

• Different treatment reports can be created from device data stored in the patient’s record.

Reports facilitate answers to therapy concerns such as patient adherence, patterns and

exceptions.

• The system alerts you when software updates are available to be downloaded and installed. This

ensures you have access to the latest features.
