INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to assess point accuracy, rate-of-change accuracy, and safety of a prototype, minimally invasive continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device over a 12 h in-clinic study. The CGM system consisted of a wireless electronics module with a disposable glucose sensor attached to the bottom. The electronics module was affixed to the abdomen using an adhesive pad on the bottom of the disposable sensor housing. METHODS: Two CGM sensors were inserted into the abdominal tissue (left and right) of 15 adults aged 26-67 years, 5 with normoglycemia, 5 with type 1 diabetes, and 5 with type 2 diabetes. Over a 12 h period, each participant was fed three meals. Reference venous blood samples were drawn at periodic intervals (12.4 ± 5.3 min), and glucose was measured at the bedside using a laboratory reference method. For each participant, a single plasma equivalent glucose concentration was used for retrospective sensor calibration. RESULTS: A total of 1082 paired data points were obtained from 15 subjects and 25 of 30 sensors. Statistical analysis yielded a mean absolute relative difference of 12.6% and a mean absolute difference of 16.0 mg/dl. Continuous glucose error grid analysis showed the combined point and rate-of-change accuracy was 97.4% in zone A and 1.5% in zone B (98.9% A+B), with 1.1% erroneous readings. CONCLUSIONS: The prototype CGM system provided clinically accurate results 98.9% of the time and was well tolerated by participants, with little or no pain and no adverse events.
