description  A blood glucose test measures the amount of a type of sugar (glucose) in blood. Glucose comes from carbohydrate foods. Insulin is a hormone that helps a body's cells use the glucose. Insulin is produced in the pancreas and released into the blood when the amount of glucose in the blood rises. AFDSI created a Blood Glucose ontology to integrate data from Dexcom continuous glucose monitoring systems.
