Linking EHR and proprietary data for novel real-world research
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices capture daily glucose trends but often lack the clinical context needed to study long-term outcomes and comorbidities. Dexcom partnered with Truveta, using the technology behind Truveta Live Link to securely merge its CGM data with longitudinal EHR records, creating an integrated dataset of more than 200,000 patients linking glucose measurements to diagnoses, medications, lab results and outcomes. The linked dataset supports Dexcom's R&D, regulatory and health-economics teams and is being used to accelerate research into kidney-disease progression, risk stratification, and real-world CGM therapy effectiveness.
Truveta is a real-world-data company owned by a consortium of major US health systems, supplying daily-updated de-identified EHR data and a genomic-linkage research program.
This sits in the Data Providers stage of the AI use-case lifecycle: Named examples from the real-world-data, claims and competitive-intelligence providers pharma AI systems are trained on, benchmarked against, or run inside of.
