Accuracy and reliability of continuous blood glucose monitor in post‐surgical patients

Background: The STG‐22™ is the only continuous blood glucose monitoring system currently available. The aim of this study is to determine the accuracy and reliability of the STG‐22™ for continuously monitoring blood glucose level in post‐surgical patients.
