Accuracy of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in an Insulin-Treated Population Requiring Haemodialysis
Authors' conclusion
We conclude that the Freestyle Libre sensor is accurate in measuring glucose levels when compared to glucose as measured by capillary SMBG testing and laboratory obtained serum glucose in patients on HD.
Study context
- Population
- Insulin-treated diabetes patients on haemodialysis (HD)
- Participants
- 69 patients
- Comparison
- Freestyle Libre Pro continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) vs capillary SMBG and plasma glucose
- Outcome
- Clarke error grid: glucose values in acceptable range of agreement
Methodological detailsData cleansing applied to account for rapidly correcting hypoglycaemia and poor SMBG technique
- Data cleansing applied to account for rapidly correcting hypoglycaemia and poor SMBG technique
Performance
As reported in the abstract
Glucose values in acceptable range of agreement (Clarke error grid)
97.9%
On dialysis days
97.3%
On non-dialysis days
99.1%
Further findings
Acceptable agreement (Clarke-error grid), dialysis days vs non-dialysis days
- Dialysis days
- 97.3%
- Non-dialysis days
- 99.1%
