Stelo, by Dexcom, is now available at Morehead City & New Bern office locations for both our active patients and walk in customers.
STELO APP
Get the full picture of your glucose health by seamlessly connecting activity and sleep data from your Apple Health or Google Health Connect apps with Stelo.
To share your Stelo glucose data with your health apps, go to Settings > Connections and follow the instructions on screen for your desired health app connection.
If you enable this feature, you’ll see the sleep and activity data from your health app in your Stelo Events tab.
Just a heads up, Stelo sends your glucose data to health apps with a 3-hour delay. However, it checks your health apps every 5 minutes for things like activity and sleep events.
BENEFITS FOR OUR ACTIVE PATIENTS*
Your personal Registered Dietitian will have access to your glucose patterns and trends and will be able to help you understand how to manage these trends better.
Your personal Registered Dietitian will help you establish the appropriate glucose goals based on your health (non-diabetic, pre-diabetic, or diabetic).
While your A1C is commonly used to diagnose and assess long term glucose control, it is the average of 3 months. The continuous glucose monitor reflects the more common daily fluctuations in blood glucose levels. This may help you identify the ‘daily slump’ or the ‘cravings’.
*Active patients are patients who have had appointments within the last 3 months or have follow up appointments over the upcoming 3 months. Patient review of glucose patterns will require a face-to-face OR telehealth appointment with the Registered Dietitian to discuss trends, challenges, and effective ways to improve blood sugars.
STELO + PRACTICE BETTER
Not only can you track your blood glucose but Stelo talks to your our EMR. When paired with journaling your intake, your dietitian can truly identify what is affecting your blood sugars. With a Food Journal, Mood Journal, Activity Journal, Water Journal, Bowel Journal, and Sleep Journal, you can use them all or none at all with your Stelo.
Practice Better is Contemporary Nutrition’s EMR. Patients have personalized goals.
