Benefits and Accuracy of Real-Time CGM in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes Attending Summer Camp: Second Year
Authors' conclusion
G7 was rated higher in usefulness and recommendation than G6 among participants. G7 also exhibited improved accuracy and was considered a useful rt-CGM tool in a camp setting. Glucose management on camp was significantly improved because of the multi-directional efforts of the HCPs.
