Comparing the performance of different continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems is challenging due to lack comprehensive guidelines for clinical study design. In particular, absence concise requirements distribution comparator (reference) blood (BG) concentrations and their rate change (RoC) that are used evaluate CGM performance, impairs comparability. For this article, several experts in field testing have collaborated propose characteristics measurements should be collected during...

Introduction: The accuracy of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems is often assessed with respect to blood (BG) readings. CGM readings are affected by a physiological and technical time delay when compared BG In this analysis, the dependence performance parameters on rate change was investigated for 2 systems. Methods: Data from previously published study were retrospectively analyzed. An established system (Dexcom G4, Dexcom, San Diego, CA; A) prototype (Roche Diagnostics GmbH,...

Metrics derived from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems are often discordant between systems. A major cause is that CGM not standardized; they use various algorithms and calibration methods, leading to readings across This discordance can be addressed by standardizing performance assessments: If manufacturers aim their at the same target, then will align standardization should include comparator device, sample origin, study procedures. With better aligned readings, CGM-derived...
