CGM Monitoring

CGM Monitoring – Why Is It Done?

CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitoring) is a system that continuously measures glucose levels throughout the day and night using a small sensor placed under the skin.

It is done to:

  • Monitor blood sugar levels continuously
  • Detect high and low blood sugar
  • Understand how food, exercise, and medicines affect glucose
  • Help improve diabetes management and treatment
  • Identify glucose patterns and fluctuations that regular testing may miss

CGM provides valuable insights into daily glucose patterns and helps doctors and patients make better decisions about diabetes care.
