Threshold and Predictive Alerts of Continuous Glucose Monitoring and Glycemic Control in Hospitalized Adults With Diabetes: A Randomized Clinical Trial

In this randomized clinical trial of hospitalized adults with diabetes, CGM threshold glucose alerts modestly improved glycemic control compared with CGM use without alerts. The addition of predictive alerts did not confer further glycemic benefit beyond threshold alerts alone.
