“…There are commercially available CGMSs that differ in their SC tissue glucose concentration working range (20-600 mg dl -1 , depending on the device), duration of the initialization period between insertion of the sensor and the first display (0.5-2h), timing of the initial and subsequent calibrations, cable or wireless connection between the sensor and the monitor, and their ability for real-time display of the recordings or not (Rios and Ward, 2008;Wiedmeyer and DeClue, 2008;Affenzeller et al, 2010;Moretti et al, 2010;Dietiker-Moretti et al, 2011;Fleeman, 2011;Hafner et al, 2013;Surman and Fleeman, 2013). Continuous research efforts aim to optimize the site of the body where the sensor is inserted into the SC tissue and to validate different CGMSs for dogs and cats (Rios and Ward, 2008;Affenzeller et al, 2010;Moretti et al, 2010;Dietiker-Moretti et al, 2011;Hoenig et al, 2012;Hafner et al, 2013;Mori et al, 2013;Surman and Fleeman, 2013).…”
