INSERTION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INSERTING A MEDICAL DEVICE

An insertion system (110) is disclosed. The insertion system (110) comprises a medical device (112) and an insertion device (113) for inserting the medical device (112) into a body tissue of a user, the insertion device (113) comprising: i) an insertion component (118) configured for inserting the medical device (112) into the body tissue; ϋ) an insertion component retractor (120); iii) a cap (122); iv) a guide sleeve (124) and an insertion sleeve (128) guided therein; v) a locking sleeve (126) positioned in the insertion sleeve (128); and vi) an elastic member (130) positioned between the locking sleeve (126) and the insertion component retractor (120); wherein, for inserting the medical device (112), the cap (122), the insertion component retractor (120), the locking sleeve (126) and the insertion sleeve (128) are movable relative to the guide sleeve (124) from a distal position to a proximal position, wherein the insertion device (113) is separable from the medical device (112), wherein the insertion system (110) is configured such that a separation of the insertion device (113) from the medical device (112) releases a movement of the locking sleeve (126) from its proximal position to a further proximal position.
