[Post-prandial hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes patients].

Objectives: Through the analysis of a group of type 2 diabetes patients, the aims of this study are: to evaluate through CGMS (continuous glucose monitoring system) the post-prandial subcutaneous glucose excursions; to analyze the correlations between subcutaneous glucose and capillary glycemia with HbA1c and to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and broad-mindedness of the CGMS.

Methods: Forty type 2 diabetes patients were analyzed, with HbA1c until 7.3%, in use of oral agents and within less than a ten-year diagnosis.
