Performance of the Fifth Generation of a 16-Day Continuous Glucose Monitoring System in Adults with Diabetes

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

The system demonstrated accurate glucose measurements across the 16-day wear period, irrespective of sensor placement site or glucose concentration.
