A Study to Learn How Well a Monitoring System Called Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Which Measures Glucose on an Ongoing Basis Works and How Safe it is in Chinese Patients in Usual Practice

Researchers are looking for a better way to help Chinese people who have diabetes to monitor their blood sugar (blood glucose) situation. There are 2 types of diabetes. In people with type 1 diabetes, the body's immune system attacks and destroys cells in the pancreas that produce a hormone called insulin. In people with type 2 diabetes, the body does not make enough insulin or does not use insulin well. This results in high blood glucose levels. Over time, high blood glucose levels can cause damage to certain parts of the body. These include the eyes, the kidneys, the nerves, and the heart. There are tests and devices available for doctors and patients to measure blood glucose levels. Repeated measurements of blood glucose levels are needed to see whether the treatments that prevent blood glucose levels from becoming too high work well and to notice when the blood glucose is decreasing too much. Such tracking of the blood glucose is also called blood glucose monitoring. Blood glucose monitoring tests and devices can however be difficult to use, and one test or device may not work for all patients. Researchers think that better monitoring systems would help patients improve the control of their blood glucose levels. This could help stop their diabetes from getting worse. In this study, the researchers want to learn more about how well a new monitoring system called CGM works in Chinese patients with diabetes. CGM is a continuous glucose monitoring system. It regularly measures the level of glucose in the tissue throughout the day and night. CGM is made up of a small sensor that patients apply in the belly region where it is placed just under the skin, into the so-called subcutaneous tissue. The sensor measures the level of glucose in the fluid that surrounds cells in the subcutaneous tissue. It also has a transmitter which attaches to the sensor and sends via Bluetooth the results to a device, which can instantly display the glucose level. The glucose levels can
