At Omnia Hospital, we are committed to providing the latest and most effective treatments for managing diabetes. One of the most innovative tools we offer is the 7-Day Prick-Free Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system, designed to help patients monitor their blood sugar levels without the need for frequent finger pricks.
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) is a revolutionary technology that tracks blood glucose levels in real time throughout the day and night. The CGM system involves a small sensor placed just under the skin, which measures glucose levels in the interstitial fluid. This sensor is connected to a transmitter that sends the glucose readings to a smart device or monitor every few minutes.
At Omnia Hospital, we offer a 7-day prick-free CGM, allowing patients to continuously monitor their glucose levels for an entire week without the need for daily fingerstick tests. This method provides a more comprehensive view of how blood sugar levels fluctuate over time, enabling more precise diabetes management.
Key Benefits of Prick-Free CGM
• No Finger Pricks: With this CGM system, patients can avoid the discomfort and inconvenience of daily finger pricks while still receiving accurate glucose readings.
• Real-Time Glucose Monitoring: The CGM provides continuous, real-time data, helping patients and healthcare providers track glucose trends and patterns throughout the day and night.
• Improved Blood Sugar Control: By monitoring glucose levels continuously, patients can make better-informed decisions about their diet, exercise, and medication, leading to improved blood sugar control.
• Alerts and Notifications: The CGM system sends alerts when glucose levels are too high or too low, allowing patients to take immediate action to avoid dangerous spikes or drops.
• Data Insights: Patients can review their glucose data over time, enabling more accurate adjustments to insulin doses and lifestyle changes.
CGM is particularly beneficial for individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who need more consistent glucose monitoring. It is ideal for:
• Patients who experience frequent highs and lows in blood sugar levels.
• Those looking to gain better control over their diabetes.
• Individuals who want to avoid the inconvenience of finger-prick tests.
• People who wish to identify how different foods, activities, and medications affect their glucose levels.
1. Sensor Placement: A small, discreet sensor is inserted just under the skin, typically on the abdomen or the back of the arm. The sensor measures glucose levels in the interstitial fluid every few minutes.
2. Real-Time Monitoring: The sensor sends glucose readings wirelessly to a receiver, smartphone, or other smart devices, allowing you and your healthcare provider to track glucose levels continuously.
3. Alerts & Feedback: The system sends alerts if glucose levels move outside the target range, helping you take action before levels become dangerously high or low.
4. 7-Day Monitoring: The CGM system works for 7 days straight, providing consistent, prick-free glucose data without interruptions. After a week, the sensor can be replaced for continued monitoring.
• Early Detection of Glucose Fluctuations: CGM helps patients detect and manage glucose spikes and dips before they become severe, preventing complications such as hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.
• Better Medication and Diet Adjustments: By seeing how daily activities, meals, and medications affect blood sugar in real time, patients can make timely adjustments to maintain optimal glucose levels.
• Reducing Complications: Consistent monitoring allows patients to maintain better blood glucose control, which is crucial in preventing long-term complications like nerve damage, cardiovascular disease, and kidney issues associated with diabetes.
