Why Some CGMs May Be Less Safe Than You Think

Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) play a major role in diabetes management, but not all CGM accuracy and testing standards are the same. In this episode, I sit down with John Pemberton of Glucose Never Lies to break down how CGMs are tested, and why FDA clearance and CE marking aren’t equivalent when it comes to insulin dosing safety. As diabetes technology moves toward automated insulin delivery, we explore the risks of relying on data that may not be rigorously validated. We also cover the key questions every person with diabetes should ask before trusting their CGM.   Learn about Omnipod 5 (today's sponsor)*   Learn about the Eversense 365 CGM   Join the Diabetech Newsletter   Follow Diabetech: Instagram | Tik Tok | YouTube | Facebook | Threads   Follow The Glucose Never Lies: Instagram | Youtube | LinkedIn   DISCLAIMER: This podcast is not medical advice and is for educational purposes only.
