Indications
- improves glycemic control in younger & older patients with diabetes mellitus type 1[10]
- postprandial hyperglycemia
- dawn phenomenon
- overnight hypoglycemia
- FDA-approved for insulin dosing[6]
- type-2 diabetes requiring insulin[7]
Clinical significance
- "flash" glucose monitor[5]
- increases frequency of glucose checks
- decreases hypoglycemia in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1
- improves glycemic conterol in type 2 diabetes treated with basal insulin without prandial insulin[11]
- in diabetics treated with insulin, hypoglycemia is common but generally asymptomatic[17]
Procedure
- intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitors (isCGM) must be scanned manually with a receiver or smartphone,
- more expensive real-time continuous glucose monitors (rtCGM) automatically send readings to a receiver or smartphone every few minutes
- rtCGM improves glycemic control vs isCGM for type 1 diabetics[13]
- below describes real-time continuous glucose monitors (rtCGM)
- a small, wire-like sensor inserted subcutaneously that provides continuous data on glucose levels
- worn externally with continuous display an estimate of blood glucose levels, & the direction & rate of change of these estimates
- the Dexcom Share system displays data from the G4 Platinum CGM System using two apps: one installed on the patient's mobile device (cell phone) & one installed on the mobile device of another person
- using Dexcom Share's mobile medical app, the user can designate people "followers" with whom to share their CGM data
- the app receives real-time CGM data directly from the G4 Platinum System CGM receiver & transmits it to a Web-based storage location. The app of the "followers" can then download the CGM data & display it in real-time
- "flash" glucose monitor[5]
- FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System[8]
- does not require fingerstick for calibration
- Eversense Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system includes a fully implantable sensor to detect glucose, which can be worn for up to 90 days: sends readings every 5 minutes to a mobile app to warn users of hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia[9]
