However, the growth of CGMs will be offset by a steady decline in the blood glucose meters (BGMs) segment due to continued extreme price competition/downward pricing pressure, lowered test-strip reimbursement, and market saturation of lower-cost meters, among other factors. These are the latest findings of Research and Markets (Dublin, Ireland), a leading market research store. The overall BGMDs market is being driven by several positive factors, including a strong demand for discreet, accurate CGM devices that provide convenient blood glucose monitoring 24/7 and eliminate frequent/cumbersome and painful fingersticks; steadily increasing awareness and adoption of new, next-generation CGMs on the back of strong sales/marketing/advertising and physician referrals; solid clinical outcomes due to the ability to improve the accuracy of insulin delivery and improve glycemic control or time-in-range (TIR) via continuous (24/7) glucose monitoring; the ability to integrate lucrative CGM sensors into fast-growing next-generation hybrid closed-loop insulin pump systems, better patient awareness and physician understanding of glucose trends and impact of diet/medication/exercise/lifestyle factors due to the use of smartphone-driven digital health coaching apps, resulting in improved diabetes management; ability to lower overall healthcare costs; solid reimbursement; low CGM market penetration (due to newness of technology), leaving much room for market growth in a large and expanding diabetes population; and sales of lucrative recurring CGM disposables (sensors) and accessories.

Such news always evoke strong emotions in me, because I understand that humanity is developing in colossal steps, and very soon what was recently considered incredible or strange, today becomes reality. We have learned to cure complex diseases, to make almost instant diagnosis, I recently read an article about how operations are performed on unborn babies, yes, imagine right in the womb. It all makes me incredibly excited. And that's especially true these days, when all people have come together to solve one common misfortune, a virus that has spread around the world. I think that today's society has access to anything it wants or has to face some kind of problem in person.
