[QUOTE="VickiT11979, post: 402146, member: 53386"] Info from US conference re accuracy of CGM [url=http://www.diabetesdaily.com/voices/2013/07/the-latest-diabetes-treatments/]http://www.diabetesdaily.com/voices/201 ... reatments/[/url] Says Dexcom are best with readings on average within 10.8% of venous glucose readings, then Abbott Navigator at 12.3%, then Medtronic Enlite at 17.9%. That matches my experience comparing Dexcom with Medtronic at the beginning of this year. The interesting thing is that BG meters have to be within 20% of venous glucose values. We don't usually know whether they've been tested as more accurate than "within 20%", yet we rely on these as the "true" readings & discount our CGM readings when there's a mismatch - but it could actually be the CGM that's right!
