How Does CareSens Air Work?

What is Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)?

A continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) continuously measures the level of glucose in interstitial fluid and displays trends and patterns in glucose level changes.

It measures the user’s glucose in real time and can send alerts before glucose levels fall too low or rise too high. This allows the user to manage their diabetes easily and effectively.

Sensor Placement

When you wear the CareSens Air CGMS sensor, it sits just under your skin and measures glucose in the interstitial fluid; the fluid that surrounds your body’s cells.

Glucose Detection

The sensor surface contains special enzymes that react with glucose. This reaction produces tiny electrical signals, which are used to calculate your glucose levels.

Data Transmission

The transmitter sends these glucose readings to your smartphone, where you can view your levels, trends, and patterns in the CareSens Air app.

Timing Differences

Because glucose takes about 5–10 minutes to move from your bloodstream to the interstitial fluid, readings from a CGMS may slightly differ from finger-prick tests; especially during rapid changes in glucose levels.
