Treatment Decisions -What Would You Do

Let's see an example of a situation you may encounter. It's important to consider what has happened and what is about to happen when using Eversense E3 CGM to make treatment decisions.

Glucose monitor displays "75 mg/dL" with a graph showing levels below target range on November 19, 2020.

Glucose below target at 75 mg/dL but rising moderately. Your glucose could rise between 30 and 60 mg/dL and could reach 135 mg/dL (75 plus 60) within 30 minutes.

It’s 9am, and you dosed insulin for your breakfast about 2 hours ago.

  • You may want to keep an eye on your glucose value and the arrow before making a treatment decision.

  • Or you may consider taking carbs

How To Make Treatment Decisions

Before making a treatment decision from your CGM data**, you should take into account the sensor glucose value, the trend arrow, the trend graph, and any alerts from the Eversense E3 CGM System. You should not base your decisions on glucose value only or trend arrow only.
