Beta Bionics Announces Launch of the iLet Bionic Pancreas with Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensor

Beta Bionics has launched its iLet Bionic Pancreas integrated with Abbott's FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensor, providing fully autonomous insulin delivery for people with diabetes. The iLet calculates insulin doses using minute-by-minute glucose data from the sensor, removing the need for carb counting or manual insulin corrections. Beta Bionics also released the Bionic Circle App, allowing up to 10 family members or friends to remotely monitor users’ glucose levels and insulin doses. This integration offers a new approach to diabetes management with convenient access through pharmacies and a pay-as-you-go model.

ABBOTT'S FREESTYLE LIBRE® 2 AND 3: FIRST CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEMS APPROVED FOR USE DURING MEDICAL IMAGING

Abbott announced that its FreeStyle Libre 2 and 3 continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems have received FDA clearance for use during common imaging procedures like X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, making them the first CGM systems approved for this use. Previously, patients had to remove and discard their CGM sensors before imaging, causing data gaps and added costs. The updated clearance allows patients to maintain continuous glucose monitoring throughout these procedures, supporting uninterrupted diabetes management and improving convenience and affordability. Abbott’s rigorous testing ensured sensor efficacy post-imaging, reflecting its dedication to accessible diabetes care innovations.

Utilizing Continuous Glucose Monitoring for Early Detection of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Pregnancy Outcomes in an Asian Population

A study of 103 overweight or obese Asian women in early pregnancy found that continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) may effectively predict gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as primary cesarean delivery and larger-than-average newborns. CGM-derived metrics outperformed traditional risk models in predicting GDM, suggesting that CGM could be valuable in early pregnancy screenings to improve outcomes for high-risk pregnancies.

Accuracy of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Hemodialysis Patients With Diabetes

A recent study published in Diabetes Care investigates the accuracy of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) compared to traditional blood glucose measurements for hemodialysis patients with diabetes. The study, conducted on 31 patients using the Dexcom G6 CGM, found a moderate correlation between CGM and blood glucose readings, with a mean difference of around +15 mg/dL. Although accuracy was lower during hemodialysis, error grids indicated that nearly all CGM readings were within clinically acceptable ranges. The findings highlight the potential for CGM use in this patient group, though further research is needed to confirm its benefits.
