Clinical Usage and Potential Benefits of a Continuous Glucose Monitoring Predict App

Abstract

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has become an increasingly important tool for self-management in people with diabetes mellitus (DM). In this paper, we discuss recommendations on how to implement predictive features provided by the Accu-Chek SmartGuide Predict app in clinical practice. The Predict app’s features are aimed at ultimately reducing diabetes stress and fear of hypoglycemia in people with DM. Furthermore, we explore the use cases and potential benefits of continuous glucose prediction, predictions of low glucose, and nocturnal hypoglycemia.
