The advancement of diabetic care in the past 10 years has revolutionized the care of Type 1 diabetics. Nothing has improved the health and quality of life for a diabetic more than the Continuous Glucose Monitor, called a CGM. Prior to the use of this device, a typical 12 year old diabetic would test their blood sugar over 10 times per day. Each of these tests required a puncture of their fingertips to draw blood, and the reading would only be their estimated blood sugar at the time of the test. Now, CGMs, like the DEXCOM, allow diabetics to see their blood sugars at all times. Plus, they drastically cut down on the number of finger pokes a day. Features of the Dexcom allow diabetics to see a continuous number and shows them where they are trending. A favorite feature of the Dexcom is that it can be paired with insulin pumps, helping streamline patient care. (Presented by DEXCOM)
