Synopsis During diabetes, control of blood glucose level close to the normal range is highly essential for avoiding any acute and chronic consequences. Constant and accurate monitoring of the glucose level in diabetic patients is very important and glucose monitoring is an essential tool in such cases for people with diabetes. The present study compares the key differences between flash glucose monitor and fingerprick measurements and the limitations associated with it. This week’s “MED FACT” discusses the clinical trial from Biosensors journal, “Differences Between Flash Glucose Monitor and Fingerprick Measurements”.
Authors: Staal, M.O.; et. al. Key Takeaways Flash Glucose Monitor could be beneficial for patients as well as manufacturers when voluntary calibration mechanism is introduced and would result in improved Mean Absolute Relative Difference (MARD). Researchers can benefit…
