  • Key Considerations for CGM Use in Older Adults with T1D
    Host: John Buse, MD, PhD
    Guest: Anna Kahkoska, MD, PhD

    Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can help improve glycemic management in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D), but integrating this technology can be a complex learning process for older adults. So what do we need to consider when it comes to CGM use in older adults? Find out with Dr. John Buse and Dr. Anna Kahkoska, Assistant Professor in the Department of Nutrition and an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Dr. Kahkoska is also the author of a recent paper, titled “Nothing is linear: Characterizing the determinants and dynamics of CGM use in older adults with type 1 diabetes.”
