This short video covers the process of inserting an Enlite sensor in an easy to follow way. It's adult, teen and child friendly.

Editorial team notes

This is a useful video for those using the Enlite sensors with a VEO pump and the old inserter which lots still have.  There is a new inserter which is slightly different to this and the charger is a different colour. Most newer users of Medtronic Enlite sensors will be offered the 'One press' serter (the new one has two buttons on either side) which operates slightly differently.
