How is Continuous Glucose Monitoring Shaping the Future of Diabetes Care?
We’re excited to introduce our brand-new podcast series, ATTD Diabetes Talks: CGM in Focus, hosted by Dr. David Kerr.
This series brings you closer to the cutting edge of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), exploring the latest technologies, clinical applications, and real-world experiences that are shaping diabetes care today.
Each episode will dive deep into:
- Emerging technologies driving advances in CGM
- Clinical applications and what they mean for healthcare professionals and people with diabetes
- Data insights that inform better treatment decisions
- The role of AI and digital health in transforming diabetes management
- Practical strategies for improving everyday life with CGM
🎙️ Episode 1: AI-Driven CGM & Personalized Medicine
Special Guest: Dr. Shivani Misra
Consultant Physician and Head of Metabolic Medicine at Imperial College London, she is a Wellcome Trust-funded investigator specializing in early-onset type 2 diabetes, atypical and non-classical diabetes phenotypes, and congenital hyperinsulinism.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand the role of artificial intelligence in enhancing continuous glucose monitoring.
- Recognize both the challenges and opportunities AI presents in diabetes management.
- Explore how AI-driven CGM may benefit young people living with diabetes.
- Consider the potential of AI to support and drive positive behavior change in diabetes care.
🎙️ Episode 2: The Future of AI-Driven CGM in Diabetes & Metabolic Health
Special Guest: Dr. Michael Snyder
Dr. David Kerr and Dr. Michael Snyder explore how AI-driven CGM tools are advancing diabetes care, personalized interventions, lifestyle and microbiome impacts, and early intervention opportunities.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand how AI and CGM transform diabetes management.
- Describe personalized interventions using AI insights.
- Recognize lifestyle and microbiome effects on glucose.
- Discuss AI’s potential for early intervention and improved outcomes.
🎙️ Episode 3: CGM Research and Trends in Pregnancy
Special Guest: Dr. Denice Feig
We discuss how CGM improves maternal and neonatal outcomes, review key clinical trials including CONCEPTT, and examine trends in CGM use across T1D, T2D, and gestational diabetes.
Learning Outcomes:
- Explain how CGM improves outcomes for mothers and infants.
- Summarize key clinical trials, including CONCEPTT.
- Describe trends in CGM use across different types of diabetes in pregnancy.
🎙️ Episode 4: Common Pitfalls and Troubleshooting CGM Use During Pregnancy
Special Guest: Dr. Sarit Polsky
We discuss common pitfalls of CGM use in pregnancy, including skin issues, alarm fatigue, and other barriers. Sharing practical troubleshooting strategies and highlight the importance of education and support for successful CGM use.
Learning Outcomes:
- Identify common barriers to successful CGM use in pregnancy (e.g., skin issues, alarm fatigue).
- Provide practical troubleshooting strategies for clinicians and patients.
- Discuss the role of education and support in overcoming CGM-related challenges.
🎙️ Episode 5: Postpartum CGM Management and Diabetes Risk
Special Guest: Dr. Grenye O’Malley
They discuss postpartum glucose and insulin changes, GDM progression to type 2 diabetes, CGM for early detection, and transitioning from pregnancy to postpartum care.
Learning Outcomes:
- Explore changes in glucose patterns and insulin needs postpartum.
- Discuss CGM use for early detection of type 2 diabetes after GDM.
- Share strategies for transitioning from intensive pregnancy care to postpartum follow-up.
🎙️ Episode 6: The Future of CGM in Maternal Health
Special Guest: Dr. Claire Meek
They discuss high-risk pregnancies, care gaps, CGM impact, type 2 diabetes management before and during pregnancy, third-trimester considerations, and early hybrid closed-loop use.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand the potential of AI and machine learning to personalize CGM feedback.
- Explore future directions for CGM in high-risk pregnancy care.
- Identify gaps and innovations needed to make CGM more equitable and scalable globally.
