Dexcom is the leader in continuous glucose monitoring for people with diabetes. Released in June 2018, the Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring system uses a small sensor placed on a patient’s lower abdomen that wirelessly sends their glucose levels to a smart phone, smartwatch or receiver, allowing them to closely and discreetly monitor their numbers without being required to prick their fingers for diabetes management. The system also has built-in alerts and alarms that proactively notify patients and their family and friends before their blood glucose reaches potentially dangerous levels. It really is a revolutionary, life-changing device. Jake Leach is Chief Technology Officer at Dexcom and joins me on this daily tech podcast to share how they are using sensors and wearables to transform the lives diabetics.
