Question 1 of 9

1. Question
Is the following statement TRUE or FALSE?
Intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) technology requires the user to scan their sensor with a reader or use the smart phone app to see their glucose levels.
- True
- False
Correct

Incorrect
Question 2 of 9

2. Question
Which of the following is FALSE?
- Data overload can confuse or worry some users
- Interstitial fluid glucose has a time lag between 2 and 4 minutes
- Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is a more accurate measure than capillary glucose testing when glucose levels are changing rapidly
Correct

Incorrect
Question 3 of 9

3. Question
Which of the following is CORRECT?
- CGM helps a person with diabetes to measure their glucose levels without needing to regularly prick their fingers
- CGM records glucose levels continuously throughout the day and night
- To monitor glucose levels a sensor is worn which inputs glucose data to a phone device or reader, allowing better management of diabetes
- All of the above
Correct

Incorrect
Question 4 of 9

4. Question
Which of the following is FALSE?
- Blood glucose and interstitial glucose levels are closely related but not identical
- Glucose sensor data (from interstitial glucose) may lag 2–4 minutes behind blood glucose levels
- A person using CGM will not require access to finger prick blood glucose monitoring equipment
Correct

Incorrect
Question 5 of 9

5. Question
Which of the following is CORRECT?

The trend arrows on the reader/mobile phone device indicate:
- The speed and direction in which glucose is heading
- That glucose levels are too high or too low
- That the displayed result is inaccurate
Correct

Incorrect
Question 6 of 9

6. Question
Which of the following is not a NICE-recommended indication for CGM?
- Type 2 diabetes on >1 insulin injection per day with recurrent hypoglycaemia
- Pregnant women on insulin therapy and severe hypoglycaemia/unstable blood glucose levels
- Type 1 diabetes
- On a sulphonylurea and unwilling to check glucose using finger prick capillary glucose testing
Correct

Incorrect
Question 7 of 9

7. Question
According to current NICE guidance, who is eligible for CGM technology on prescription?
- All adults with type 1 diabetes
- Adults with type 2 diabetes on 2 or more daily insulin injections who have recurrent hypoglycaemia or severe hypoglycaemia
- Adults with type 2 diabetes on 2 or more daily insulin injections who have impaired hypoglycaemia awareness
- Adults with type 2 diabetes on 2 or more daily insulin injections who have a condition or disability (including a learning disability or cognitive impairment) that means they cannot self-monitor their blood glucose by capillary blood glucose monitoring but could use an isCGM device (or have it scanned for them)
- Adults with type 2 diabetes on 2 or more daily insulin injections who would otherwise be advised to self-measure at least 8 times a day
- Adults with type 2 diabetes who would otherwise need help from a care worker or healthcare professional to monitor their blood glucose
- All of the above
Correct

Incorrect
Question 8 of 9

8. Question
If a person with type 2 diabetes on two or more insulin injections per day decides not to test eight times a day (and fulfils none of the other eligibility criteria), can CGM be offered in accordance with NICE recommendations?
- Yes
- No
Correct

Incorrect
Question 9 of 9

9. Question
When would isCGM not be the preferred option?
- In individuals with hypoglycaemia unawareness
- In those with an incompatible mobile device
Correct

Incorrect
