Glucose Data Now Available on Labfront via Dexcom Integration

Our new integration with Dexcom simplifies data collection and analysis for researchers in the fields of metabolic and lifestyle studies, offering insights into diabetes management, stress effects, nutrition choices, and more.

Access glucose data with ease

Researchers, clinicians, and citizen scientists, your data collection and analysis is about to get an upgrade. We’re excited to unveil Labfront now supports glucose data, thanks to our latest integration with Dexcom's continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices.

By making continuous glucose monitoring available on Labfront's platform, we’re streamlining the data collection process for researchers studying anything from diabetes management to the effect of stress on blood glucose levels. Dexcom is known for its state-of-the-art CGM devices that provide real-time blood glucose levels with impeccable accuracy.

Why is this such good news?

📈 Comprehensive Metabolic Insights

For example, let's say you're studying the keto diet's impact on type 2 diabetes. You can now easily collect and look at participants' glucose data from Dexcom alongside other digital biomarkers captured with a Garmin smartwatch. This enables a richer analysis that could help with more targeted and effective treatment strategies.

💡 Real-World Behavioral Studies

Interested in how stress impacts blood sugar levels? The Labfront-Dexcom integration allows for the simultaneous tracking of glucose data with other variables such as stress and mood, providing you with a more complete picture of real-world scenarios.

🍎 Nutrition and Lifestyle Choices

For those exploring how different foods and meal timings affect glucose fluctuations, using Labfront's event tracking and questionnaires with Dexcom can chart glucose patterns against other factors like caloric intake and exercise. Gain a better understanding of the relationships between lifestyle choices and metabolic health.

🔒 Secure, Reliable, and Compliant

Data security is a top priority for us and all project integrations first require Dexcom's approval. Rest assured that we guarantee a secure platform for transferring and storing glucose data, ensuring compliance with healthcare data regulations.

How to get started

Unlocking these research capabilities is simple:

  1. Log into your  Labfront account.
  2. Go to the project builder and select Dexcom when adding a device.
  3. Fill out the form to request Dexcom's approval. We'll guide you through the rest via email.
  4. Once approved, you can start collecting data seamlessly and focus on what you do best—innovative research!

What’s next

This is just the beginning. We’re working on adding more features and integrations to make your research process even smoother.
