Burdens of CGM Use by Age in Individuals 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	1.65	1.99	1.87	2.12	1.36	1.30	1.70	1.68	1.43
12-18	1.72	1.98	1.83	2.07	1.61	1.40	1.74	1.73	1.44
19-26	1.63	1.93	1.61	2.06	1.57	1.30	1.78	1.54	1.29
27-49	1.66	2.22	1.67	2.08	1.56	1.34	1.64	1.41	1.33
50-64	1.64	2.08	1.48	2.20	1.68	1.31	1.48	1.45	1.37
65+	1.89	2.10	1.64	2.71	1.83	1.63	1.89	1.48	1.69
Total	1.69	2.05	1.71	2.16	1.59	1.37	1.69	1.57	1.42

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 age <65 years versus ≥65 years of age, P = .004.
