Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Hospitalized Adults With Diabetic Ketoacidosis: A Prospective Open-Label Pilot Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices are increasingly used in critical and non-critical care hospital units. The efficacy of CGM in assessing glucose control in adults with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is unknown.

Methods

This single-center pilot study compared glycemic control by real-time CGM (Dexcom G6), capillary point-of-care (POC), and basic metabolic panel (BMP) during intravenous (IV) insulin treatment and after the resolution of DKA. We compared the mean absolute relative difference (MARD), median absolute relative difference (ARD) glucose values, and Diabetes Technology Society (DTS) Error Grid analyses.

Results

We recruited 52 patients (49 ± 19 years, admission glucose: 503 ± 239.4 mg/dL) with type 1 diabetes (n = 24) and type 2 diabetes (n
