When To Use Meter And The G6 Pro; Chapter 9: Treatment Decisions - Dexcom G6 Pro User Manual

Chapter 9: Treatment Decisions

G6 Pro gives your patient the freedom of making treatment decisions
without the need to take a fingerstick. In most cases, if they have a
number and an arrow, they have all the information they need.
However, there are times when they may want to use both their meter
and the G6 Pro or need to use the meter instead of the G6 Pro. And
sometimes, it's best not to treat, just watch and wait.
Review with your patient what works best for when making
treatment decisions.

9.1 When to Use Meter and the G6 Pro

To gain confidence in the system, and if your patient wants, they can
use both the meter and their G6 Pro. Using their meter, they confirm
their sensor readings allowing them to see how:
• Accuracy with newly inserted sensors may vary
• Sensor readings may be different depending on the situation
(meals, exercise, first day of use, etc.)
