Performance, Safety and Usability of a Third-Generation Continuous Glucose Monitoring System in a Pediatric Population: Results From a Prospective, Multicenter Study

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Prospective single-arm study

Authors' conclusion

In a pediatric population, the novel CGM system demonstrated accurate and stable performance across its 15-day wear life and showed high usability.
