Continuous Glucose Monitoring: A Pilot Study

Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate connectivity of the FDA approved DexCom G7® continuous glucose monitor in the operating room. Continuous glucose monitors are applied to the skin and a thin sampling filament is inserted into the skin and measures blood sugar in the interstitial fluid. The DexCom G7® is used regularly outside of the operating room to monitor blood sugar, however the use of the device in the operating room environment has been limited by connectivity issues. This study will assess device connectivity at different monitoring sites.
