Comparison of Blood Glucose Values Used for Impending Non-Severe Hypoglycemia Management with Corresponding Continuous Glucose Monitoring Data in Type 1 Diabetes: A Secondary Analysis of the REVERSIBLE Trial

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Secondary analysis of the REVERSIBLE randomised trial

Authors' conclusion

When using CGM, PwTID may need to treat or prevent NS hypoglycemia at a higher threshold than 72 mg/dL (4.0 mmol/L) and 80 mg/dL (4.5 mmol/L), respectively.

Study context

Population
People living with T1D
Comparison
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) values vs corresponding blood glucose (BG) values at 3 treatment thresholds for impending non-severe (NS) hypoglycemia
Methodological detailsthree-arm, open-label, crossover
  • Three-arm
  • Open-label
  • Crossover

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

CGM (DexcomG6) vs BG
In all three arms CGM values overestimated BG levels
P < 0.001

Safety

Rebound hyperglycemia (BG > 180 mg/dL; 10 mmol/L)

No rebound hyperglycemia observed
