Glucose monitoring has expanded well beyond diabetes care. This tool helps cut through the options and start the right conversation with your patient — with full product details on danatech to support the discussion.

What is the patient's diagnosis or reason for CGM monitoring?

What is the patient's insulin delivery approach?

Which AID system is the patient using or planning to use?

Select all that apply — or leave blank for a general recommendation

Patient is under 18 years of age
Several CGMs have adult-only clearance — this limits available options
Hypoglycemia unawareness or history of severe lows
Alarm capability is a clinical priority
Dialysis or end-stage renal disease (ESRD)
CGM accuracy may be affected — verify with nephrology and manufacturer guidance
Frequent adhesion failures or skin reactions to sensors
Premature sensor loss, contact dermatitis, or sensor-change burden
Hearing impairment or need for non-audible alerting
On-body vibration alerts needed without reliance on phone or external device
Limited hand dexterity or difficulty with sensor self-application
Arthritis, tremor, stroke sequelae, or other conditions affecting manual sensor changes
Patient prefers a simplified workflow or limited app experience
Fewer setup steps and interactions for sustained engagement
High-activity lifestyle — competitive sports, frequent swimming
Sensor-change frequency and adhesion under sweat are practical considerations
