Why CGM?

 

Dexcom G7 15 Day: Proven results in patients with type 1 diabetes12

Compared to BGM, Dexcom CGM demonstrated significant A1C reduction12

Study design: The COMISAIR-2 study was the 3-year follow-up to the COMISAIR trial which compared the efficacy and safety of long-term regimens of sensor-augmented insulin regimen (SAIR) among individuals. This nonrandomized, prospective, real-world, clinical trial followed 94 participants with type 1 diabetes. The primary end point was the difference in A1C groups after 3 years of follow-up.12

Why CGM for patients with type 1 diabetes? 

American Diabetes Association

ADA guidelines recommend CGM for all adult patients with type 1 diabetes2:

  • On MDI and insulin pumps
  • As early as diagnosis

LESS THAN50% of patients with TYPE 1 DIABETES have adopted CGM23

CGM reveals dangerous glucose variability.14

Blood glucose monitoring (BGM) doesn’t reveal the full story. CGM provides the complete 24-hour picture to help your patients address spikes or troughs BGM can miss.
