Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is revolutionizing management. Use of CGM in hospital is poised to transform care, however routine use is not currently recommended due to lack of accuracy validation in acute care, including in people with T1D. We aimed to determine real-world CGM accuracy in hospitalized adults with T1D.

Objective: Thrombocytopenia is a common complication of hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT), though many patients will become immune refractory to platelet transfusions over time. We built and evaluated an electronic health record (EHR)-integrated, standards-based application that enables blood-bank clinicians to match platelet inventory with patients using data previously not available at the point-of-care, like human leukocyte antigen (HLA) data for donors and recipients.

Materials And Methods: The web-based application launches as an EHR-embedded application or as a standalone application.
