Description

If you work with people living with diabetes on insulin, you are likely very aware of the many challenges that come with balancing glucose levels during physical activity. Join us to explore how to use CGM as a tool to strategize solutions for patients in your practice, allowing them to focus more time on their activity, exercise, or sport.

Learning objectives:

  1. Identify challenging glucose trends related to exercise and/or physical activity
  2. Explain how various types of exercise impact glucose levels differently
  3. Examine practical strategies to help your patients use CGM data to participate in physical activity safely and confidently
