How do Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems work?

What is it?

A continuous glucose monitoring system (CGM)  uses a handheld reader (or an app your smart phone) and a sensor worn on the back of the upper arm or hip to track your levels.

How does it work

The sensor uses a thin, flexible filament inserted just under the skin to measure glucose every minute or so,  the sensors typically last for up to 14 days!

How to use it?

Once you have placed the sensor in the back of your arm, wait 1 hour, then you can use the handheld reader to scan the sensor with a painless, one-second scan to replace fingersticks, no more pricked fingers, no more test strips, no more pain!

We offer a wide variety of products to make your life with Diabetes easier.
