Using Your Dexcom CGM System
Understanding Data and Trends
How are ranges defined for Time in Range?
Time in Range is the percentage of time that glucose levels are in low, target and high ranges. Dexcom Clarity displays time in range from both daytime and nighttime ranges.
How far back can I access my data in Dexcom Clarity?
All data uploaded to Dexcom Clarity will remain accessible as long as the product is available for use. When logging in to Dexcom Clarity for the first time, there will be limited data depending on when the account was created. Going forward, data will continue to build as it is uploaded to Dexcom Clarity.
How are the Daily and Hourly Statistics calculated?
Daily statistics are calculated values for the individual day of the week over the date range selected.
Setting Up Sharing and Dexcom Clarity
How can I customize Dexcom Clarity?
In Dexcom Clarity, use the Settings page to customize data display and sharing. Changes only apply to Dexcom Clarity and do not change any settings on your Dexcom CGM system. Changes made in Settings by a healthcare professional during a clinic session only apply during the session.
How does Dexcom Clarity get my data?
If you use a receiver, you log in to Clarity from a computer, connect your receiver, then follow Clarity’s Upload Instructions. The data stored on your receiver will appear instantly. Dexcom receivers store about 30 days of CGM readings with 120 Calibrations. It is important to upload Dexcom receiver data to Clarity at least every 30 days to ensure data is not lost.
How do I know when Dexcom Clarity has been updated?
For every release, a notification banner is posted at the top of the Dexcom Clarity on the day of the release. Follow the banner's link to read the release notes. If the Uploader software is updated, the notification banner posts 2 weeks before the release.
Will Dexcom Clarity work with G6?
Yes, G6 does work with Clarity. Patients will not need to register again. If you are already sharing with your clinic, the clinic will not need to reconnect.
