Accuracy of a Seventh-Generation Continuous Glucose Monitoring System in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

The G7 CGM placed on the arm or abdomen was accurate in children and adolescents with T1D.

Study context

Population
Children and adolescents with T1D: ages 7 to 17 years (YSI venous comparator) and ages 2 to 6 years (capillary fingerstick comparator)
Participants
122 vs 118
Comparison
G7 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) placed on the arm vs abdomen, vs venous (YSI) or capillary comparator glucose
  • Armn = 122
  • Abdomenn = 118
Outcome
Overall accuracy vs YSI, ages 7 to 17 (15 437 matched pairs)
Follow-up
10.5 days of use
Methodological detailsCGM data available from 127 of 132 participants aged 7 to 17 and 28 of 32 aged 2 to 6
  • CGM data available from 127 of 132 participants aged 7 to 17 and 28 of 32 aged 2 to 6
