Summary
This study tested whether a real-time continuous glucose monitor (CGM) could help manage low blood sugar in very low birth weight newborns. 48 preterm infants were randomly assigned to either CGM or standard finger-stick testing for the first 3 days of life. The goal was to see if CGM reduced the number and length of low blood sugar episodes, which can harm brain development.
