Discussion

Pilot study evaluates continuous glucose monitor usage and glycemic control in youth, suggesting new strategies for sustained use.

Mean HbA1c decreased from 10.2% to 9.8% during the 12-month period, indicating potential for improved glycemic control.
Among 30 enrolled youth, CGM use was 50% at three months but declined to 23% by 12 months, showing challenges in sustained usage.
The study employed intermittent scanned CGM and included data collection at six visits within 12 months for comprehensive evaluation.
Parents and youth responded positively towards diabetes technology, highlighting the need to explore barriers affecting CGM use in youth.

Shah et al. (2025) studied this question.
