3 1 Introduction to Dexcom Portrait on the Web 1.1 Overview of Portrait on the Web Portrait on the Web is an accessory software program intended to allow the transfer of glucose data stored by the Dexcom Continuous Glucose Monitoring System to remote servers for data management. The software can be used by healthcare professionals in their office environments as well as by end users in their home environments. After the glucose data transfer, the information is displayed in charts and tables to help the end users and the healthcare professionals analyze trends and patterns in glucose levels. Reports can be downloaded, saved or printed. At-home end users can also reports. Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed healthcare professional. WARNING: The software does not provide any medical advice and should not be relied on for that purpose. Patients should not make changes in their treatment program without talking with their healthcare professionals.

22 4.1 Trend Patterns Report Page 22 of 49

23 The Trend Patterns Report helps identify patterns of high and low glucose trends. The pattern map shows daily trend traces so that healthcare professionals can quickly visualize the high and low trends over time and discuss these patterns with patients. The Trend Patterns Report is divided into four sections: Daily Trends The Daily Trends graph lets you see several days of sensor glucose readings over each hour of the day, all on one 24-hour graph. Each day is a different color dot line on the graph. This can help you see patterns and trends in sensor glucose readings from hour to hour and from day to day Pattern Map A lighter shade of color shows a low/high pattern. Lows are shown in shades of red. Highs are shown in shades of yellow. A darker shade means that the glucose values are farther Page 23 of 49

24 from target (distance), and how many of those glucose values (frequency) are outside the target range. Target is the target glucose range defined for the glucose data displayed. Distance is how much the glucose value is different from the target range. Distances farther away from the target are given more weight than closer distances and are displayed in a darker shade. The distances are averaged over the range of days selected. Frequency is how many times in the given range the glucose value is over or under the target. A significant pattern occurs when the glucose values are repeatedly outside the target range for frequency and average of weighted distances. Page 24 of 49

25 4.1.3 Pattern Insights Summary The Pattern Insights Summary shows how many patterns are found for each of the four preset patterns (Nighttime Lows, Daytime Lows, Nighttime Highs and Daytime Highs). It also shows when the most significant pattern occurred. If no significant patterns are found, the No significant patterns detected message is displayed. Page 25 of 49

26 The Some Possible Considerations section lists actions to consider if certain patterns are detected. They are displayed next to the appropriate pattern in the Patterns Insights Summary. Page 26 of 49

27 4.1.4 Statistics The Statistics section shows different statistics for the selected days. The Sensor Usage statistics show the number of days in which sensor readings were taken out of the total number of days in the report. The Calibrations / Day statistics show the total number of calibrations divided by the sensor usage days. The Standard Deviation statistics represent a measure of variability in sensor glucose readings around the average. The larger the standard deviation, the larger the variability. The Target Range is the target glucose range. See Section 5.2 to change the target range. The Nighttime Range is the fixed time range for nights. WARNING: Patients must consult a healthcare professional before making any medical interpretations and therapy adjustments from the information in these reports. Page 27 of 49

28 5 Customizing a Report With Portrait, you can customize the Date Range and the Target Glucose Range used to create reports. 5.1 Date Range You will see data from the Last 7 Days when the report is first shown. You can choose a different date range to see more data by using the drop-down box at the top of the report screen for Date Range. To change the Date Range, click the down arrow in the Date Range box, and choose from Last 14 Days or Last 30 Days. The software will automatically update the report to the new date range. Page 28 of 49

29 5.2 Target Glucose Range The Target Glucose Range of mg/dl is the range shown by default on the report. To change the Target Glucose Range, click the down arrow in the Target Range dropdown box and choose the target range of mg/dL. The software will update the Report automatically to show the new range. Page 29 of 49

30 NOTE: If you click on the Help link in the top right hand corner of ANY screen, you will find helpful tips. The Help link in Trend Patterns gives you tips on viewing the data. 6 Downloading, Saving, Printing and ing Reports 6.1 Report Formats Page 30 of 49
