"Monitoring Blood Glucose Levels in Hospital"

I am a Type 3c diabetic patient. I was in SCGH for a totally unrelated day procedure unrelated to my diabetes. That’s when I noticed that policies and procedures associated with managing insulin dependent individuals is seemingly outdated and doesn’t take advantage of the modern developments in BGL monitoring. Couple of examples 

1. Monitoring of BGL while under General Anaesthesia. I understand that periodic sampling is inadequate as patients are fasting for the procedure and can go into hypoglycaemia during the procedure. I think a continuous glucose monitoring sensor would be really useful in this situation. 

2. Hourly pricks in the ward - currently nurses wake patients up every couple of hours and prick them to get the BGL. I believe this is really unnecessary. A patient fitted with CGM can be monitored without needle pricks. This also reduces the workload, and risk of infection and bleeding. Each CGM lasts 10 days and I believe will be sufficient for a hospital stay. 

If anyone in the position of authority is reading this , please consider updating the policy of BGL monitoring to take advantage of modern developments. I believe this will also help make the experience more humane for T1 and T3 diabetics.
