Today, Onduo announced that they will present three abstracts at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 80th Scientific Sessions: A Virtual Experience, June 12-16, discussing the Onduo Virtual Diabetes clinic which uses intermittent continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in Type 2 diabetes patients.
In February, Onduo shared positive research findings from the use of CGM in adults with Type 2 diabetes, with an overwhelming majority of survey participants (95% or greater) reporting the use of CGM helped increase their diabetes knowledge, including the impact of eating and taking medications.
Details of the virtual abstract presentations which will provide full clinical study data from that trial follow:

About Continuous Glucose Monitoring
CGM devices are small sensors, worn on the stomach, that take glucose readings every five minutes – automatically. While CGMs have historically been used by people with type 1 diabetes, more recently there is recognition of the value of CGMs in helping people living with type 2 manage their diabetes. Onduo pioneered the intermittent use of CGMs in its program in 2018, where members wore the device every few months for a 10-day period, to promote long-term engagement and sustainability. Intermittent use also allows the clinic to do periodic assessments as a person’s clinical status changes.
