Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)

A Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS) is a device that tracks your blood sugar levels throughout the day and night. It involves a small sensor placed under the skin that measures glucose in the fluid between cells. The sensor transmits data wirelessly to a display device, like a smartphone or monitor, providing real-time insights into your glucose trends. This helps people with diabetes manage their condition more effectively by making informed decisions about diet, activity, and medication, reducing the risk of highs and lows. CGMS offers a convenient, ongoing view of blood sugar, improving overall control and safety.
