The hypoglycaemia error grid: A UK-wide consensus on CGM accuracy assessment in hyperinsulinism.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) is gaining in popularity for patients with paediatric hypoglycaemia disorders such as Congenital Hyperinsulinism (CHI), but no standard measures of accuracy or associated clinical risk are available. The small number of prior assessments of CGM accuracy in CHI have thus been incomplete. We aimed to develop a novel Hypoglycaemia Error Grid (HEG) for CGM assessment for those with CHI based on expert consensus opinion applied to a large paired (CGM/blood glucose) dataset.

Design and methods

Paediatric endocrinology consultants regularly managing CHI in the two UK centres of excellence were asked to complete a questionnaire regarding glucose cutoffs and associated anticipated risks of CGM errors in a hypothetical model. Collated info
