Bath with Dexcom G5

Hello
My daughter has started using this device.I have problems with sensor stickers.What can be done to secure the glue?Can you protect with something?And when do you bathe in the sea?Thanks for what you can tell me.

Hello @"maraguilera" you can put Skin Tac is excellent to reinforce the sensor, I also put adhesive kinesioligic tape above the sensor to hold better!

Hello!I put a semi -permeable transpirable transpirable dressing.It cannot be put on top of the sensor, you have to cut it and put it on the white sticker, let's say.I cut four pieces and put it on, and it lasts a lot.If you take off a little, I get another x on top, as is transparent, you don't notice much.
There are many brands, they are sold in any pharmacy these dressings, they are the typical that are used on venous pathways so that the waterproof and perspire zone is.
I have bathed in the sea a lot of times, for several hours, and does not take off.I do not cover it with anything because I put it in the upper part of the buttock and the bikini covers it.
Greetings!

I also reinforce with a transparent apartment, now I use Tegaderm, previously cut a hole to get the transmitter but now I leave it covered and go the same, I have not yet noticed change that measures worse loses signal
