Hi, I'm just about to restock my pump supplies and was was wondering if anyone has road tested the Mio Infusion Set?
 
I'm not a medtronic pumper, but I understand from the another site that the Mio is just the animas inset II infusion set in different packaging, which I use! 🙂 I'm not sure how they compare to other medtronic sets, but I find them really easy to use, and I like that the set comes with its own inserter - makes it really easy to just stick one in my bag! :D
 
They look much like the Animas sets, I'll be ordering a box for a road test I think. I do like the all in one inserter and set carrier. I might try some silhouettes too.
 
These things had better be good haha. I've just got five months worth of them coming! Well, I do have a box of quicksets hanging around still so that's alright. I did like the Animas set that Viki gave me at the London meet last November. It's quite the conveniene factor for me with the Mios as I can leave them at work and not have to worry about taking a quick serter everywhere with me. Happy days.
 
Its down to you then Tom! Please report back when you have tested them out. I'm sure they will be great. I rang Medtronic this morn to see if they would send me a couple out to try before I ordered but no such luck :(
 
We switched from quickset to sil a few months ago and all is going swimmingly... Medtronic mentioned Mio to me on the phone two days ago, but I wasn't sure what it was about (bit out of loop) -- what's the selling point?! I like the idea of taking the inserter with you, hallelujah....

Click to expand...
All we need now is someone to come up with pre filled reservoirs and our load will be lighter!
 
Ok, I am getting a little too excited about these things arriving haha. I'll write up the performance of them when I get them. Looks like I might just be doing a set change on the Wednesday haha...

Have you gone for the blue ones?
 
Oh man that is enough to make me want to force a switch to Roche! It must be coming for all makes, fingers crossed...
 
Oh that would just too good wouldnt it Patricia?! 😉

Thanks Tom for putting me onto the link via FB by the way, I hadnt even heard about them! (shame on me!) and I watched the videolink. Fab.

Needless to say of course, I want some. PINK! 🙂
 
My Mios get here tomorrow. It'll be a nice thing to come home to after a trying day attempting to comprehend coagulation at work. I love my job really... I'll be flaunting them to the DSN.
