the only CGM* with proven accuracy and safety in pregnancy1
DEXCOM G7 WAS SHOWN TO BE ACCURATE AND SAFE IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE 1, TYPE 2, AND GESTATIONAL DIABETES1
missed readings can lead to undetected hypo- and hyperglycemic events during pregnancy1-5
up to 98.3% of daily readings can be missed with conventional BGM and fingersticks†
Real-time CGM like Dexcom G7 delivers positive outcomes and
may help reduce risks‡,1,4,6-9
For your pregnant patients, real-time CGM can lower:
risk of hyperglycemia§,1,10
risk of preeclampsia||,1,11
gestational weight gain||,1,12
rate of C-sections||,1,11
A1C1,10,13,14
And for their baby, real-time CGM may decrease instances of:
LGA§,15
neonatal hypoglycemia§,15
NICU admissions§,15
diabetes can add a mental burden to pregnant patients16— continuous glucose monitoring may help
outcomes from a study with 350 pregnant patients with diabetes showed16:
fear of hypoglycemia was a predictor of depression and anxiety16
depression and anxiety can lead to increased insulin resistance and poor glucose control16
reducing the fear of hypoglycemia may improve the mental health of pregnant patients with diabetes16
simplifying disease management for your patients
no fingersticks¶ required
easy, painless application of the sensor to the back of the arm17
better treatment decisions for preventing hypo- and hyperglycemic events1,2
using the Share/Follow feature helps reduce fear of hypoglycemia18
patients can pick up their sensor at their local pharmacy
simple to replace the sensor at home every 10 days17

pregnancy with diabetes
BGM = blood glucose monitoring; CGM = continuous glucose monitoring; LGA = large for gestational age; NICU = neonatal intensive care unit.
*Based on commercially available CGM systems. †Based on a person testing blood glucose 5x a day vs. 288 readings using Dexcom CGM. ‡Studies have demonstrated an association between elevated glucose and increased incidence of cesarean delivery, preeclampsia, and birth weight >90th percentile. §Study conducted in pregnant women with T1D. ||Study conducted in pregnant women with gestational diabetes. ¶Fingersticks required for diabetes treatment decisions if symptoms or expectations do not match readings. #Individual pricing may vary depending on commercial insurance coverage.
