Context: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is increasingly being used both for day-to-day management in patients with diabetes and in clinical research. While data on glycemic profiles of healthy, nondiabetic individuals exist, data on nondiabetic very young children are lacking. Objective: This work aimed to establish reference sensor glucose ranges in healthy, nondiabetic young children, using a current-generation CGM sensor. Methods: This prospective observational study took place in an institutional practice with healthy, nondiabetic children aged 1 to 6 years with normal body mass index. A blinded Dexcom G6 Pro CGM was worn for approximately 10 days by each participant. Main outcome measures included CGM metrics of mean glucose, hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, and glycemic variability. Results: Thirty-nine participants were included in the analyses. Mean average glucose was 103 mg/dL (5.7 mmol/L). Median percentage time between 70 and 140 mg/dL (3.9-78 mmol/L) was 96% (interquartile range, 92%-97%), mean within-individual coefficient of variation was 17 [+ or -] 3%, median time spent with glucose levels greater than 140 mg/dL was 3.4% (49 min/day), and median time less than 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) was 0.4% (6 min/day). Conclusion: Collecting normative sensor glucose data and describing glycemic measures for young children fill an important informational gap and will be useful as a benchmark for future clinical studies.
