Abbott Laboratories said Monday that its FreeStyle Libre 3 glucose-monitoring system has received approval for use in Europe.

The system includes a small sensor that is applied to the back of the upper arm and worn for 14 days at a time, Abbott said. The sensor interacts with a mobile app to help people with diabetes monitor their glucose levels.

Abbott, based in Illinois, said it will launch the system in Europe in the coming months.
