Brief Summary

Introduction and objective: The key to optimal diabetes management is tight glucose control. Hemoglobin A1c is the gold standard to assess glycemic control but in cases of unrecognized hypoglycemia, confusing nighttime events or in cases of large variations in blood glucose, a haemoglobin A1c can not detect specific movement of blood glucose. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) provides informations of glucose levels in a real-time format and may be helpful for making the personalized therapy decisions desired in the era of precision medicine. Our aim is to analyse the benefit of tracking patterns of glucose values by using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in patients with T2DM in family medicine office.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Glycemic variability in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus in primary care measured by continuous glucose monitor device

    7 days

Interventions

A CGM device is to be set and take of by the GP. Before the study start all GPs will have a short education on CGM device by the diabetologist who use CGM on a daily base. Study period is seven days and includes screening before study entry and two visits. On Day 1, after screening and signing the informed consent, the CGM device is applied. Patient is instructed to keep a 7 day diary with four daily standard home blood glucose monitoring (SHBGM) along with the data on eating, physical exercise, drugs. Bayer's Contour® glucometer is used for the SHBGM. On Day 7, CGM device is took of and the data from iPro2 is uploaded to PC. At the end, each patient fill a short query on satisfaction while wearing CGM.
