Burdens of CGM Use by Age in Individuals Not Using CGM: Mean BurCGM Scores.

Age (years)	Total mean score^	Too costly	Painful to wear	Readings not trusted	Too much time to use	Not helpful	Cause worry	Embarrassed wearing	Hard to understand
2-11	2.33	2.46	2.49	2.58	2.19	2.19	2.32	2.26	2.21
12-18	2.29	2.46	2.61	2.46	2.27	2.02	2.24	2.22	2.06
19-26	2.25	2.61	2.68	2.34	2.22	1.97	2.19	2.02	2.05
27-49	2.36	3.04	2.57	2.47	2.46	2.04	2.30	1.95	2.02
50-64	2.52	3.12	2.55	2.56	2.70	2.19	2.48	2.21	2.40
65+	2.54	3.04	2.74	2.62	2.48	2.19	2.61	2.42	2.59
Total	2.35	2.73	2.60	2.48	2.36	2.07	2.30	2.14	2.14

Mean score scale one to five: one is strongly disagree and five is strongly agree; the higher the mean score, the greater the burden. Mean scores for <50 years versus ≥50 years of age, P = .004.
