Do continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) impact hyperinsulinism (HI) care?

✅ Among participants currently using a CGM:
🔹 82% reported that CGM data led to adjustments in their treatment plan (e.g., medication dose/timing, prescribed feeding schedule) and/or daily routine (e.g., snack before activity, avoiding certain activities).

✅ Hypoglycemia prevention actions:
🔹 84% take at least one preventive action every day (e.g. eating food and/or taking medication to prevent a low)
🔹 40% report an average of four or more preventive actions daily

These findings show how CGMs can play a key role in managing HI and preventing dangerous lows.

These insights and more are featured in our 2025 HI Global Registry Annual Report, available at https://congenitalhi.org/higr-annual-reports-and-publications/

“It was so easy to connect, and I'm excited to know that my son's Dexcom data will help make the case for getting all HI kids access to a CGM.

Having a Dexcom has made his blood sugar management so much easier for us, and I know his data will demonstrate how our kids are unique and need this technology.” ⁠

Sharing your glucose values helps HI researchers understand the unique glucose patterns in people with HI. ⁠

Every hour matters when severe hypoglycemia goes undetected.

In Turn Hours Into a Lifetime, CHI and the creative team at Wolfstreet share the real-life experiences of three families affected by hyperinsulinism from around the world. Their stories demonstrate why early diagnosis, access to treatment, and greater awareness are critical for protecting lives and preventing avoidable brain injury.

We are proud to share this film and thankful to the LightCure Grant and the European Union for supporting this work.
