CGM vs Blood Glucose Meter (BGM)

The CGM sensor automatically and continuously tracks glucose levels, using a sensor inserted just below the skin. CGM systems measure glucose in the interstitial fluid – the fluid between your cells just under the skin. Since CGM is measuring glucose in a different part of the body, it will not be the same concentration as in the blood.

A blood glucose meter (BGM) takes a small sample of blood from your fingertip and places it on a test strip that’s inserted inside a meter. The meter provides a glucose value based on the amount of glucose in the blood sample at that moment.

The CGM diabetes device can be acquired in Pune through MyDiagnostics via the platform. You can buy the Freestyle Libre India CGM system directly from the website, schedule a home visit for installation by a medical professional, and start tracking your blood glucose levels. You can also reach out to us if you have any questions about the sensor and device setup.

CGM Sensor Working

The CGM sensor is a very thin wire or filament, inserted with the aid of a needle under the skin. This glucose sensor is applied on the back of your arm. In order to hold the sensor in place, there’s a sticky backing like a band-aid, that attaches the sensor to the skin. Using similar enzymes as a test strip for a glucose meter, the sensor’s job is to monitor glucose in the interstitial fluid, which is the fluid between the cells. Sensors can stay in place for several days (about 14 days).

Benefits of CGM Sensor

  • Provides 14 days of continuous glucose readings. The sensor takes a reading every 15 minutes, so in a day it takes 96 readings (even while you are sleeping). Total 1344 readings provide a high-resolution glucose profile & trends
  • This is the only device which records your glucose levels while you are asleep thus measuring the key data during hypoglycaemic episodes
  • No multiple pricking ... Just install once and keep up with your daily activity while the sensor does its job

THIS IS A MEDICAL GRADE DEVICE TO BE INSTALLED AND SUPERVISED BY A REGISTERED MEDICAL PRACTITIONER ONLY.

    Which hormone regulates blood glucose level and how?

    Two hormones, glucagon and insulin regulate the blood glucose level in our body. Glucagon, a peptide hormone secreted by the pancreas, raises blood glucose levels. Its effect is opposite to insulin, which lowers blood glucose levels.

    When it reaches the liver, glucagon stimulates glycolysis, the breakdown of glycogen, and the export of glucose into the circulation. You can get the precise glucose readings in your body through the CGM device. You can buy the glucose reading device in Pune through MyDiagnostics and know more about your blood sugar levels.

    What are the symptoms of low sugar glucose levels in the body?

    You should be mindful of excessive sweating, feeling dizzy, extreme hunger, and sudden mood swing if you are prone to low sugar levels. Chronic headaches, tingling lips, trembling, and heart palpations should also be taken seriously, with quick medical attention provided to the person. Fainting can also occur, which is why instant action is key.
