Feasibility and performance of continuous glucose monitoring in hyperglycemia after lung transplantation.

Background: Post-Transplant Diabetes Mellitus (PTDM) affects 20%-40% of lung transplant recipients within five years, impacting rejection, infection, cardiovascular events, and mortality. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is used in diabetes but not well-studied in PTDM.

Objective: This study assessed CGM performance in detecting hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia post-lung transplantation, compared to self-monitoring blood glucose.
