Fabiato K et al. - This review summarizes the evidence for use, identifies suitable candidates, describes optimal implementation, and employs case scenarios in order to emphasize practical aspects of RT-CGM use in adults. Because the technology has been shown to be most useful in patients who are actively viewing and responding to RT data, patients should receive explicit instructions for active self-adjustment of insulin and lifestyle elements. While the technology is improving, false alarms remain a significant barrier to optimal use. The utility of RT-CGM for patients with severe hypoglycemia or hypoglycemia unawareness has not been established.
