Who is using continuous glucose monitoring for type 2 diabetes management? A scoping review protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Equitable access to healthcare technology is a major public health issue. For adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D), continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology can improve diabetes self-management and clinical outcomes. Even though CGM is now recommended by professional guidelines for all patients with diabetes on insulin therapy, evidence suggests that CGM is underutilised and inequitably prescribed across health systems. As CGM is an emergent technology, it is vital to understand what approaches have been studied to overcome inequities in CGM access for adults with T2D, what aspects of equitable access have yet to be addressed and what are facilitators and barriers to CGM access at the individual, facility and health system levels.
