Understanding Time in Range (TIR)
TIR is the percentage of time glucose levels are between 70-180 mg/dL per unit of time. Industry standards recommend A1C < 7.0%. A recent study found that patients with A1C < 7.0% experienced 60 minutes per day in hypoglycemia (<70 mg/dL).
Association with Quality of Life and Complications
More Time in Range means less severe highs and lows and is correlated with better quality of life. Clinical data analyses show that increased Time in Range is strongly associated with reduced microvascular complications in patients with type 1 diabetes.
Why Smart CGM?
The Guardian Connect system is designed to provide strong protection against lows, proactive support for managing diabetes, and text alerts for up to 5 family or friends. It has the most customizable and advanced alerts of any CGM system, predicting highs and lows up to 60 minutes in advance.
