Definition

An integrated continuous glucose monitoring system (iCGM) for non-intensive glucose monitoring is intended to automatically measure glucose in bodily fluids continuously or frequently for a specified period of time to detect euglycemic and dysglycemic glucose levels in persons who are not on insulin and do not have a significant risk of problematic hypoglycemia. iCGM systems for non-intensive glucose monitoring are designed to reliably and securely transmit glucose measurement data to digitally connected devices, excluding devices intended to control the delivery of insulin, and are intended to be used alone or in conjunction with these digitally connected medical devices. Device output should not be used to make treatment decisions without consulting with a qualified healthcare professional.
