Note: “# of censored” refers to sensors excluded from the survival analysis due to
reasons not related to the device (e.g., subject dropped out of study)
Number of readings provided
G7 is capable of providing a valid sensor reading every 5 minutes, or up to 288 valid
sensor readings per day. For a variety of reasons, G7 may be unable to provide a valid
sensor reading. The percentage of valid sensor readings you can expect from G7 over
the sensor life is 99.4% (data not shown). All sensors (100%) had valid sensor
readings available at least 90% of the time (data not shown). Table 8-A below
