Real-World Accuracy of Continuous Glucose Monitoring During Intensive Hematological Care: A Prospective Study

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Prospective accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

Despite the relative high MARD, the use of CGM is unlikely to result in harmful insulin dosing errors and seems feasible to use during intensive hematological care.

Study context

Population
Adults hospitalized for intensive hematological care (CAR-T, allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) or autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT)); 28% female, median age 64 [58–68] years, 10% with history of DM
Participants
60 adults1,999 matched pairs
Comparison
CGM vs capillary point-of-care glucose measurements
Outcome
CGM accuracy vs POC: mean and median absolute relative difference (MARD), DTS Error Grid, % values within 15%/15, 20%/20 and 30%/30 mg/dL
