چکیده

Real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices have great potential to improve glycemic management in children and adolescents with diabetes and other disorders of glucose regulation. These devices can be used as either adjuncts or replacements for traditional meters because they have additional features such as blood sugar alarms and glucose-trend information. These features allow for dynamic adjustments in therapy and, hopefully, will be key components to closed-loop insulin infusion devices.

The role of continuous glucose monitoring in the care of children with type 1 diabetes

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), while a relatively new technology, has the potential to transform care for children with type 1 diabetes. Some, but not all studies, have shown that CGM can significantly improve hemoglobin A1c levels and reduce time spent in the hypoglycemic range in children, particularly when used as part of sensor-augmented pump (SAP) therapy. Despite the publication of ...
