C o n s u m e r E l e c t ro n i c s D a i l y N e ws Tu e s d a y, J a n u a r y 6 , 2 0 1 5 4 REVOLUTIONIZING DIABETES MANAGEMENT WITH DEXCOM More than 29 million Americans are liv- ing with diabetes, a chronic condition in which the body is unable to properly use insulin (type 2) or doesn't produce insulin at all (type 1), a hormone needed to convert food into energy, according to the American Diabetes Association. The condition requires significant diligence, such as constant fingersticking to check glucose levels and a strict diet, all with the aim of keeping glucose levels within a tight range. The consequences of poor glucose management can lead to severe drops in glucose levels and poten- tially to a life-threatening condition known as hypoglycemia. Additionally, significant glucose variability can cause long-term health implications such as kidney problems, failing eyesight, limb amputations or even death. Dexcom Inc. recognized the obsta- cles faced by insulin-dependent diabet- ics, and developed the G4 PLATINUM ® system, which uses advanced continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology to provide real-time glucose levels and to alert the user of highs and lows in blood sugar via a p o r t a b l e , h a n d h e l d device. "The Dexcom G4 PLATINUM ful- fills the promise of CGM for people with diabetes by providing accurate and reli- able real-time glucose levels so that indi- viduals can stay one step ahead of their diabetes," said Kevin Sayer, Chief Executive Officer of Dexcom. "The tech- nology does the hard work so you don't have to."
