Sensor Stability
Sensors can be worn for up to 10 days plus a 12-hour grace period. Performance was
estimated by calculating the percentage of sensor readings within 15 mg/dL or 15%
(15/15%), 20 mg/dL or 20% (20/20%), and 40 mg/dL or 40% (40/40%) of the YSI
values at the beginning (Day 1, 2), middle (Day 4, 7), and end (the second half of Day
10, the first half of Day 11) of the G7 lifecycle. For blood glucose values less than 70
mg/dL, the absolute difference in mg/dL between the two glucose results was
calculated. For values greater than or equal to 70 mg/dL, the absolute difference (%)
relative to the YSI values was calculated. In addition, the mean absolute relative
difference (MARD) shows the average amount the sensor readings differ from the YSI
glucose. The MARD values included in Table 6-A and 6-B show G7 is highly accurate
over the 10.5-day life of the sensor.
