Real world hypoglycaemia related to glucose variability and Flash glucose scan frequency assessed from global FreeStyle Libre data.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

Flash glucose monitoring provides a range of glucose metrics. In the current study, we aim to identify those that indicate that glycaemic targets can be consistently met and contrast the total (t-CV) and within-day coefficient of variation (wd-CV) to guide the assessment of glucose variability and hypoglycaemia exposure.

Methods

De-identified data from Flash readers were collected. The readers were sorted into 10 equally sized groups of scan frequency followed by quartiles of estimated A1c (eA1c). A similar grouping was performed for the total coefficient of variation (t-CV) and within-day coefficient of variation (wd-CV). In addition, analysis of the association of time below 54 mg/dl and glucose variability measured by t-CV and wd-CV was performed.
