Continuous glucose monitoring provides a more complete picture of a patient’s glucose levels, compared to what you can obtain from a blood glucose meter (BGM). More frequent access to glucose insights leads to more effective diabetes management, for you and your patients.1,2

Watch the video below to learn how the Dexcom G6 CGM System can give patients the power of glucose at a glance.
The Difference is in the Data
Some people with diabetes may struggle to understand how diet and exercise play a role in their treatment, or how to effectively titrate insulin accordingly.
But with continuous glucose readings from Dexcom G6, users can see a complete view of their glucose levels in real time, including historic and current glucose values and rate of glucose change, without requiring action from the user providing users with actionable information, over and above a single BGM reading.
Continuous Insight, Day and Night
Dexcom G6 helps minimise the guesswork derived from making diabetes treatment decisions based on a BGM reading alone and requires zero fingersticks* or scanning to access glucose data, helping to empower patients to self-manage their diabetes.
Primary CGM Components
The Dexcom G6 CGM System consists of four main components:
Otomatik aplikatör
Bir düğmeye basılmasıyla sensörün kolayca yerleştirilmesini sağlar. Hastalar, kullanım talimatlarını izleyerek sensörü kendi kendilerine uygulayabilir.
Sensör
Vericiye bir sinyal göndererek cildin hemen altına yerleştirilen küçük bir tel ile interstisyel glikoz seviyelerini izler (10 gün kullanım ömrü).
Verici
Sensörün üst kısmına sabitlenir ve verileri kullanan kişinin uyumlu görüntüleme cihazına kablosuz olarak gönderir† (3 ay kullanım ömrü).
Görüntüleme cihazı
Hastaların gerçek zamanlı glikoz verilerini ve eğilimlerini görmesine olanak tanır. Dexcom G6, ayrıca hastaların görüntüleme cihazına† tahmini Kritik Düşük Yaklaşıyor uyarısı, Kritik Düşük Değer uyarısı ve yüksek veya düşük glikoz seviyeleri konusunda hastaların uyarılmasına yardımcı olacak diğer bildirimleri içeren bir dizi uyarı gönderir.
The Benefits of CGM for Insulin-Using Patients
Proven outcomes support your patients' progress compared with conventional blood glucose management (BGM).
Hipoglisemide Azalma
Dexcom G6 tarafından sunulan tahmini Kritik Düşük Yaklaşıyor uyarısı hiperglisemi‡,1 konusunda ilgili bir risk olmadan hipoglisemide azalma ile ilişkilidir.
HbA1c'de Düşüş
Dexcom CGM kullanımı, çoklu günlük enjeksiyon (MDI) ya da insülin pompası2 kullanımından bağımsız olarak HbA1c değerini azaltır.
Hedef Aralıkta Daha Uzun Süre
Dexcom CGM kullanan hastalar, tipik olarak optimum glisemik arlıkta BGM kullananlardan daha fazla zaman geçirmektedir.3,4
Yaşam Kalitesinde İyileştirme
Dexcom G6 kullanımı, yaşam kalitesini ve esenlik halini iyileştirir.5,6
Long-Term CGM use Supports Long-Term Benefits and Outcomes
A three-year, real-world clinical trial—the longest CGM outcome study to date—reiterates the clinical impact of using rt-CGM Systems like Dexcom CGM. Study participants with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using a Dexcom rt-CGM System showed significantly reduced HbA1c levels, increased time in range (70-180 mg/dL), and decreased time below range (<55 mg/dL), independent of the insulin delivery method.2
Rt-CGM supports improved diabetes management for your patients in a way that is both accessible and sustainable. Whether your patients are sitting down for a meal, leading a presentation, or getting ready for bed, they can feel more confident in their daily diabetes treatment decisions that help shape the rest of their lives.
Maximise Your In-Person and Remote Appointments
Optimised data sharing and reporting software, like Dexcom CLARITY, allows healthcare professionals to access and review CGM reports that show patterns, trends, and specific data insights for each patient.
Learn more about Dexcom CLARITY and how you can incorporate your patients’ CGM data into your practice, whether you consult your patients in-person or via virtual appointment.
*If your glucose alerts and readings from Dexcom G6 do not match symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions.

|| An internet connection is required for patients to send their glucose data to Dexcom CLARITY via a compatible smart device: dexcom.com/compatibility
¶ Healthcare Professionals will only be able to view a patient’s glucose data if the patient elects to share it with them through Dexcom CLARITY.
