5-pack sensor design tape + sticker "Diabetes Awareness", e.g. for Dexcom G7 | waterproof decorative patch
incl. VAT
Make diabetes visible with the “Diabetes Awareness” design: This decorative patch comes as a design tape with a cutout and matching sticker in the same design. The tape frames your Dexcom G7 sensor, while the sticker decorates the sensor surface. This lets you show openly that diabetes is part of your life: diabetes sensor jewelry with a message, for example as Dexcom G7 jewelry. The decorative patches fit e.g. for Dexcom G7 and Dexcom Flex, as well as around the catheter site of an insulin pump. The tapes are waterproof and breathable; their strong, skin-friendly adhesive provides a secure hold while showering, swimming and exercising. The TapeGuard applicator is a ring that lets you place the Ring Tape on the sensor without creases, even in places that are difficult to see yourself.

How can I remove adhesive from patches from my skin?

For Dexcom G7 patch allergies and other skin reactions caused by patch or sensor adhesive, our guide to skin irritation explains possible causes and what you should know about skin protection and skin care. If skin reactions persist, speak to your diabetes team.

Tips for overpatches/tapes for covering
Sticking on and changing the tapes is even easier with our TapeCover protective cap: this permanently reusable plastic part is stuck between the tape and the sensor and ensures that you can easily remove the tape during operation and stick on a new tape.
Tips for border tapes with holes
We have developed our adhesive aid TapeGuard for tapes with a hole: TapeGuard is a small, flexible plastic frame that fits exactly around your sensor and onto which the tape is stuck. Tape and TapeGuard can then be easily stuck on even in difficult areas of the body without any outside help.

Can I change the tapes while the sensor/pod is running?
You can easily remove or replace the tape at any time while the sensor/pod is in use: Press the sensor/pod firmly onto the skin from above and carefully peel the tape around the outside from the skin. While you continue to press the sensor/pod firmly onto the skin with one finger, first pull part of the tape away from the sensor/pod until a sufficiently large area of the sensor/pod without any tape is visible. Press this area of the sensor/pod without any tape with your finger and peel off the rest of the tape.
