Understanding Continuous Glucose Monitoring

By Julia E. Blanchette, PhD, RN, BC-ADM, CDCES

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is instrumental in optimizing glycemic outcomes for all people living with diabetes (PWD) (Elsayed et al., 2025a). CGMs are wearable, minimally invasive devices that provide greater glycemic insight than traditional capillary self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) (Elsayed et al., 2025a) and can replace SMBG for insulin dosing. Frequent glucose measurements enable real-time alerts to help detect hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Viewing real-time data enables meaningful behavior changes, while analyzin data trends, providing insight into glycemic pattern.
