8.2 Sensor Glucose Readings
Device

What you do
BG Meter
Sensor readings
and BG meter
glucose values
often don’t show
the same
Differences are not
uncommon.
Readings from different
body fluids may be
slightly different:
Meter
- from blood
Sensor
- from
interstitial fluid
20/20 Rule
If the meter shows 80
or less, CGM should
read within ± 20 points.
If the meter shows
80 or above, the CGM
should read ± 20%.
Example: a 202 mg/dL
sensor reading and a
188 mg/dL glucose
meter value = a 7%
difference (this is still
considered accurate).
In this example, the
Dexcom could show
up to 225 and still be
considered accurate
Outside of 20/20 rule:
Calibrate
again.
