Cost of glucose monitoring during pregnancy
The two groups had the same cost for SMBG. The test strip cost was calculated assuming a cost of ¥3.6 per test strip and lancet. Each participant was distributed 33 strips and lancets every 4 weeks, for a total of 99 strips and lancets. The glucometer cost was estimated to be ¥396 for each participant. The additional cost for CGM was calculated to be ¥550 for sensor and ¥200 for receiver use for 3 days each visit, and totally three times in the study.
