Accuracy and Reliability of Intermittent Scanning and Real-Time Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems in Diabetes Emergencies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Diabetes care is a major challenge of patients treated in hospitals. A continuous glucose monitoring system (CGM) provides a more comprehensive assessment of glucose control than capillary blood glucose measurements. Especially in emergencies, data on CGM use in inpatients are limited. To evaluate real-world usability, accuracy of an intermittent scanning and a real-time CGM in patients admitted due to diabetes emergencies was assessed.

Methods

In 151 patients admitted due to diabetes emergencies, this single-center prospective study investigated the mean absolute relative difference (MARD) in broad glycemic ranges. The CGM accuracy was evaluated by applying a modified version of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) criteria for CGM use, Clark Error Grid (CEG),
