Continuous Glucose Monitoring Within Hospital: A Scoping Review and Summary of Guidelines From the Joint British Diabetes Societies for Inpatient Care
Recommendations
As issued by the authors
Enable people who can self-manage and use their own diabetes technology to continue doing so as out of hospital
Target hypoglycemia prevention as a priority: keep time below 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) at < 1%; be aware of looming hypoglycemia if glucose is between 4.0 and 5.9 mmol/L (72-106 mg/dL), and consider intervening, particularly with a downward continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) trend arrow
Health care organizations need clear local policies and guidance, and a capable, skilled workforce to ensure safe use of diabetes technologies in hospital
