Frequently Asked Questions

What is MARD?

The MARD (Mean Absolute Relative Difference) measures the average difference between a device measurement (the CGM) and the reference measurement at normal to high glucose values.

This measurement is the accuracy measurement for CGMs. The higher the value, the less accurate the CGM, the lower the value, the more accurate the CGM. Typically a CGM system with a MARD <10% is a good performer.
