This amused me. Watching arrests on YouTube got me thinking about what would happen with a CGM if a tazer was deployed? Searching. An “AI overview” gave me this?
“ While a Taser discharge could potentially interfere with a CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitor) due to its electrical nature, most research suggests that the impact would likely be minimal and temporary, with the device likely still functioning after the shock, as the electrical current from a Taser is designed to target muscle tissue and not deeply penetrate the body, meaning it wouldn't significantly disrupt the CGM's sensor readings; however, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider and CGM manufacturer for specific information regarding potential interactions. “
This is “one” to ask Abbott.
