Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 (type 2 diabetes) is one of the most common non-infectious diseases worldwide. Chronic hyperglycemia is a leading factor in a development of vascular complications of diabetes which involve various organs, particularly the eyes, kidney, cardiovascular system and nervous system. One of the most common complications of DM is diabetic nephropathy. Presence of chronic renal disease in a patient with DM limits options of glucose-lowering therapy. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors are currently among medications of choice for glucose-lowering therapy in patients with chronic renal disease. All currently available dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors can be administrated to patients with end-stage kidney disease on dialysis, and a rate of their use is continuously increasing. Given a high risk of hypoglycemic conditions in patients with chronic renal disease, a regular self-monitoring of glycemia is an essential component of a treatment. Glucometer Contour Plus One is one of the most recent devices developed for self-monitoring of blood glucose. Its advantage over all other blood glucose meters is an ability to synchronize with a mobile application Contour™ Diabetes (Contour Diabetes).
