💰 Abbott and Dexcom are the dominant players in the glucose monitoring market with increased growth in sales.
🌍 The benefits of glucose monitoring are being recognized beyond diabetics, with expanded insurance coverage and interest from health and wellness apps.
00:02:16 The rise of glucose monitoring among non-diabetics is expanding the opportunities to measure analytes for medical needs. CGMs provide a way to manage diabetes by measuring glucose levels and helping users keep their blood sugar in range.
💡 Glucose monitoring devices are not limited to diabetics and can be used for other medical needs.
💰 The market for CGMs is relatively small compared to the overall diabetes-related medication market, but the potential is over $100 billion.
🩺 CGMs help diabetics manage their blood sugar levels and prevent complications by providing continuous monitoring and warnings.
00:04:42 The rise of glucose monitoring among non-diabetics is expanding, with new sensors and companies entering the competitive market. Ease of use, affordability, and accessibility are key design features. Dexcom G7 and Abbott Freestyle Libre 3 are the newest sensors on the market, offering improved technology. Cost is a factor, with insurance coverage affecting pricing. The market has potential for growth, particularly among type two patients and intensive insulin users.
⭐️ There are currently over 7 million users of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) globally, with Abbott and Dexcom being the major players.
🔬 The Dexcom G7 and the Abbott Freestyle Libre three are the two latest CGM sensors on the market, offering improved accuracy and features.
💰 Cost is an important consideration for CGM users, with the Freestyle Libre three being more cost-effective due to its longer wear time.
00:07:05 Glucose monitoring is expanding beyond diabetes, with partnerships in health monitoring, closed loop systems, and weight management. The CEO predicts $10 billion growth in 5 years.
📈 The technology of glucose monitoring is applicable to all types of diabetes and continues to grow.
🤝 The company has formed partnerships with Garmin, other entities, leading pump manufacturers, smart pen players, and Weight Watchers.
💰 The company aims to expand the use of glucose monitoring outside of diabetes and sees it as a potential $10 billion product in the next five years.
🩺 During the pandemic, glucose monitoring devices were temporarily allowed for use in hospitals.
00:09:12 The rise of glucose monitoring among non-diabetics is a growing market. Abbott and Dexcom are leading the way, but Medtronic also offers a CGM. Building infrastructure and accessibility for all is a priority.
📈 The market for glucose monitoring among non-diabetics is expected to grow over 20% in the coming years.
💪 Abbott and Dexcom are leading companies in the glucose monitoring market, while Medtronic also offers a CGM.
🌍 Expanding infrastructure internationally is a challenge for companies in the glucose monitoring industry.
