Real-life 24-week changes in glycemic parameters among European users of flash glucose monitoring with type 1 and 2 diabetes and different levels of glycemic control
Authors' conclusion
24-weeks FLASH use in real life by persons with T1DM and T2DM with suboptimal glycemic regulation is associated with improvement of glycemic parameters, irrespective of pre-use regulation or treatment modality.
Study context
- Population
- European FLASH users with T1D or T2D using FLASH uninterrupted for 24 weeks, data 2014–2021; subgroups with initial suboptimal regulation (time in range (TIR) <70%, time above range (TAR) >25% or time below range (TBR) >4%)
- Participants
- 1,909 / 1,499 / 189 / 125
- Exposure
- Glycemic parameters during first vs last sensor use over 24 weeks of FLASH use
- T1DMn = 1,909
- T2DM basal-bolusn = 1,499
- T2DM basaln = 189
- T2DM non-insulinn = 125
- Outcome
- TIR (3.9-10 mmol/L)
- Follow-up
- 24 weeks

Main finding
As reported in the abstract
TIR
- In most analyses, overall and in subgroups, significant improvements in virtually all predefined primary (TIR) and secondary endpoints
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Secondary outcomes
eHbA1c, TAR, TBR and glucose variability · 24 weeks
- Significant improvements in most analyses, overall and in subgroups
