Accuracy of the Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring Sensors in People with Diabetes Undergoing Hemodialysis (ALPHA-2 Study).

The accuracy of the latest generation Dexcom G7 sensors in individuals with diabetes undergoing hemodialysis has not previously been investigated. Participants with diabetes undergoing hemodialysis were recruited, with paired sensor glucose from Dexcom G7 recorded with plasma glucose analyzed in the laboratory, as well as the Freestyle Precision Pro glucometer and EKF Biosen C-Line analyzer. Ten adults (median age 64.

Continuous glucose sensor accuracy: beyond the headline metric.

The promotion of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to standard of care for type 1 diabetes and insulin-treated type 2 diabetes reflects a robust and wide evidence base for the technology's effectiveness supported by real-world efficacy data. Multiple CGM devices are available worldwide and are marketed, in part, based on accuracy data. In this Viewpoint, we argue that accuracy metrics are no longer a point of difference between CGM devices as almost all exceed an acceptable threshold.

Diabetic autonomic neuropathy does not impede improvement in hypoglycaemia awareness in adults: Sub-study results from the HypoCOMPaSS trial.

Aims: Impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia (IAH) increases the risk of severe hypoglycaemia in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). IAH can be reversed through meticulous avoidance of hypoglycaemia. Diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) has been proposed as an underlying mechanism contributing to IAH; however, data are inconsistent.
