Abstract
IntroductionWe evaluated the accuracy and clinical utility of flash glucose monitoring (FGM) in comparison with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) undergoing hemodialysis (HD). MethodsSimultaneous FGM (FreeStyle LibrePro), CGM (iPro2) and SMBG were performed on 13 T2D research subjects. ResultsThere were good overall correlations between SMBG and FGM (64.7% and 30.8% within the A and B of Parkes Error Grid, respectively) and between SMBG and CGM (87.9% and 11.0% within the A and B, respectively). However, during HD, correlations between SMBG and FGM were only 49.7% and 37.2% within the A and B, respectively, while correlations of SMBG and CGM were 72.8% and 22.2% within the A and B, respectively. The percentage of FGM not in Zone A + B was more than 4 times higher than for CGM. The overall mean absolute relative difference (MARD) for FGM was 18.2%, this significantly higher than 11.2% for CGM. During HD, MARD for FGM was 22.8%, significantly higher than 15.0% for CGM. ConclusionFGM has good clinical agreement in T2D patients undergoing HD. However, the accuracy of FGM relative to SMBG was worse than that of CGM.
