Accuracy and Safety of the 15-Day CareSens Air Continuous Glucose Monitoring System

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

The CareSens Air demonstrated accurate performance across the wide glycemic range and was well tolerated during the 15-day sensor use period.

Study context

Population
Adults with T1D or T2D requiring intensive insulin therapy, 4 sites in South Korea
Participants
83 adults10,029 CGM-YSI pairs
Comparison
CareSens Air continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) vs YSI reference
  • CareSens Airn = 83
Outcome
Accuracy: proportion of CGM values within 15% of YSI values ≥100 mg/dL or within 15 mg/dL of YSI values <100 mg/dL (%15/15), with %20/20, %30/30, %40/40 agreement rates; MARD vs YSI
