Effectiveness of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in a Pharmacist-Run Collaborative Drug Therapy Management Service for Underserved Individuals With Diabetes: A Quasi-Experimental Study

The American Diabetes Association recommends continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to assist people with diabetes in reaching glycemic targets. However, implementation of CGM into routine practice, especially for clinics caring for underserved populations, is not well described. This study assessed the impact of short-term CGM in combination with a pharmacist-led collaborative drug therapy management service on glycemic control in underserved people with diabetes. The pharmacist-led CGM program resulted in improved glycemic control in this population. Future studies should evaluate the scalability and sustainability of this model across diverse clinical practice settings.
