OmniPod

The OmniPod System
Designed to Let Kids be Kids

The OmniPod® Insulin Management System was designed to make diabetes feel like a smaller part of your child’s life. It comes in just two easy-to-use parts:  the tubing-free Pod that delivers your child’s insulin and the handheld PDM (Personal Diabetes Manager) that programs their personalized insulin delivery.


The Pod

  • An All-in-One Simplified SolutionOmniPOD PDM2
    The insulin reservoir, angled infusion set, automated inserter, pumping mechanism and power supply are all built into the small, lightweight Pod. So there are fewer pieces to handle when starting up your child’s insulin delivery.
  • Personalized Insulin Delivery
    Delivers insulin based on your child’s personalized settings – precisely what you ask for, when you ask.
  • Wearable in More Places
    Applies directly to the body – anywhere your child would normally give an injection – so there’s no tubing to tangle or get in their way, and no infusion sets to see or handle.
  • Virtually Pain-Free & Hands-Free Insertion
    Inserts automatically with just the push of a button on the PDM. Insertion is fast and virtually pain free, and there are no needles in sight.
  • Waterproof
    Waterproof for 25 feet for up to 60 minutes, so your child won’t have to disconnect to shower or go swimming.

The PDM (Personal Diabetes Manager)

  • Simple Steps to Delivery
    Uses simple, intuitive sentences like “Are you going to eat now?” to guide your child through every step (from automatic priming and insertion, to delivering a bolus).
  • Fewest Parts to Manage
    Built-in blood glucose meter makes it easier to keep track of your child’s diabetes management supplies. It eliminates the need to carry and manage a separate meter or transfer blood glucose results from device to device.
  • Suggested Bolus Calculator
    Does all of the math for you based on your child’s individual settings – and takes guessing out of the equation.
  • Handheld Manager
    No need to have to clip anything to your child’s clothing. They can keep the PDM in their pocket, backpack or handbag until it’s time to activate a new Pod, deliver a bolus or check their blood glucose.
  • Food Library
     Convenient reference with carbohydrate counts of 1,000+ common food items.

The OmniPod is diabetes management made easy, so your child can run, swim, play sports – and do whatever they like to do – without skipping a beat.
