Abstract

HOW CAN THEY BE COLLECTED AND USED IN PRACTICE? Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is becoming an essential part of diabetes management. The AGP report is obtained over a 14-day period, with at least 70% of captured data. The time spent in the 70-180 mg/dl targel range, withe a target of over 70% or 50% in frail patients, is a new parameter that is essential for assessing glycemic control via CGM. Complemented by estimated HBA1c, now called GMI (Glucose Management Indicator), the time spent in hypoglycemia (target inférieur 5% or even inférieur 1% for frail patients) and the coefficient of variation (target inférieur 36%), the CGM offers a very comprehensive analysis of blood glucose levels, with individualized treatment adjustments based on ambulatory blood glucose profiles.
