A beta product of this<br />interactive learning tool was developed to run real-life<br />scenarios that visualize how meal choices and medication<br />affect glucose trajectories in both healthy patients and<br />patients with type 2 diabetes. This learning tool is<br />intended to be used by the clinician to engage the<br />patient in an educational discussion about continuous<br />glucose monitoring. The tool may enhance a patient’s<br />understanding of graphic glucose trajectories so that they<br />may discover how their body reacts to different lifestyle<br />choices and learn to make better real-time decisions with<br />their own CGM data. The effectiveness of this beta<br />product was evaluated by 17 health professionals. ER -
