When to use your blood glucose
meter for treatment decisions
You can use your GlucoMen Day CGM to make treatment
decisions without taking a blood glucose test. Although
in most cases you can use your GlucoMen Day CGM to
make treatment decisions, it is important to understand
situations when you do need to perform a blood glucose
test before making treatment decisions.
IMPORTANT
: When using the GlucoMen Day CGM,
always carry a blood glucose meter.
When to use
your blood
glucose meter
Why you need to use
your blood glucose meter
You have symptoms
of low blood glucose
or your symptoms
don’t match the
glucose level
displayed on the
CGM.
If the glucose level on the CGM
does not match your symptoms,
you should perform a blood gluco-
se test using your meter and treat
accordingly.
You question the
glucose level
displayed on the
CGM.
If the glucose level displayed on the
CGM is not what you expected to
see, perform a blood glucose test to
ensure you make the correct treat-
ment decision.
Your CGM does not
display a current
glucose level.
If the CGM does not display a glu-
cose level, the only way to know
your current glucose level is to
perform a blood glucose test with
your meter.
Your CGM does
not display a trend
arrow.
If the CGM does not display a trend
arrow, the CGM does not have
enough information to provide a
trend and should not be used for
treatment decisions.
