Accounting for Hypoglycemia Treatments in Continuous Glucose Metrics

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Methodological study

Authors' conclusion

This new metric integrates HT behaviors into CGM-based analysis, offering a behavior-sensitive measure of hypoglycemia exposure for more robust T1D management. Our results show that HT can be seamlessly incorporated into existing CGM methods, enhancing treatment insights by accounting for HT variability.
