For example, if you set the Low Glucose alert to 70 mg/dL, how often
will your alarm alert you if your blood glucose goes below 70 mg/
dL? Based on results for pediatrics in the G6 Study (Table 5-B), when
your blood sugar goes below 70 mg/dL, you can expect your alarm
to sound 81.6% of the time and not to sound approximately 18.4% of
time within the 15 minute period before or after your blood sugar goes
below 70 mg/dL.
