Association between Continuous Glucose Monitoring and Risk of Acute Diabetes-Related Complications in Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Nationwide Cohort Study
Key Points
The study aims to evaluate the impact of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on acute diabetes-related complications in pediatric type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
Nationwide cohort study design
Focus on children and adolescents with T1DM
Comparison between CGM users and non-users
CGM use is associated with a lower incidence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA)
Severe hypoglycemia risk is significantly reduced in children using CGM
Abstract
In this nationwide cohort study, CGM was associated with a reduced risk of DKA and severe hypoglycemia in children and adolescents with T1DM.
