Continuous Glucose Monitoring System Accuracy During Exercise Challenge (n = 70)

Condition No. of paired CGM system-YSI reference readings Percent within 15/15% reference Percent within 20/20% reference Percent within 30/30% reference Percent within 40/40% reference MARD (%) [95% CI]
Exercise condition 1190 87.6 95.1 99.7 99.9 8.3 (7.5–9.3)
Nonexercise condition 15,463 85.6 93.2 97.9 99.3 8.8 (8.1–9.3)

In-clinic accuracy is assessed compared with venous YSI reference measurement. The effect of exercise on accuracy was evaluated by instructing participants with a single sensor to perform upper arm exercises for 30 min. Results compared with a nonexercise condition are reported. The percentage of system readings within ±15 mg/dL or 15% of YSI reference values (15/15%), ±20 mg/dL or 20% of YSI reference values (20/20%), ±30 mg/dL or 30% of YSI reference values (30/30%), or ±40 mg/dL or 40% of YSI reference values (40/40%) are reported.
