TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for endocrinologists, primary care clinicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and diabetes educators.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Despite proven benefits and advances in technology that have improved the convenience and usability of blood glucose monitors and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices, these technologies remain under-utilized in the diabetes community. Among patients with type 2 diabetes, only half test their blood glucose daily, and approximately a third of patients with type 1 diabetes test their glucose fewer than 3 times daily, when the recommended frequency is 1-4 times per day for type 2 and 6-8 times per day for type 1 diabetes. In addition, only 15% of patients with type 1 diabetes and a negligible proportion of type 2 patients use a CGM device. Utilization of glucose data has not been consistent in the past, but use of personal CGM has increased over the past year, yet still varied in the clinical arena with debate on the value of measuring versus the rapid development of continuous measurement technology. However, a better understanding of the meaningful use of various glucose parameters in clinical decision-making as well as the personal use of this information by patients struggling for better diabetes control is the main goal for glucose measurement and interpretation.
ACCREDITATION STATEMENT
The France Foundation is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
