What you'll learn
At the conclusion of this continuing education activity, the participant will be able to:

Course description
As the management of diabetes has evolved it has become apparent that multiple fingersticks per day are not impacting care as once thought. This type of monitoring is more like a snapshot vs. an ongoing video of what happens with a patient's blood sugar throughout the day. Learning about new modalities, such as devices that perform CGM, and how they impact medication selection is crucial in managing patients with diabetes. In addition, CGM brings another level of what indices we should be measuring and monitoring beyond hemoglobin A1c. This activity provides updates on CGM devices and their impacts on diabetes care.

Verified reviewI really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
