The Georgian Health Ministry started issuing CGM systems, a tool for measuring glucose levels 24 hours a day for children with sugar diabetes 1, and smartphones for wearing the device, free of charge.
The Guardian 4 of Medtronic company is approved for patients aged 7-18. Use of Guardian 3 devices will continue in children under 7.
“Both the 3G and 4G devices measure glucose levels 24 hours a day, record glucose readings, and issue an alarm signal, which allows for the quick response and the ability to avoid life-threatening situations,” the Ministry said.
The socially vulnerable children and families with two or more beneficiaries diagnosed with sugar diabetes will receive the smartphones upon their application.
