Abstract
Postprandial hyperglycaemia (PPH) may sometimes be relegated to the background in the treatment of diabetic patients, while its control seems important if not essential to reach an adequate overall glycaemic control. PPH is correlated with glycated haemoglobin and diabetic complications. It is also identified as a cardiovascular risk factor. PPH's monitoring and adequate control are not only a therapeutic goal for diabetes itself but also for reducing associated adverse outcomes other than diabetic complications. PPH is related to the quality of life of patients. Continuous glucose monitoring allows a better appraisal of PPH. The use of new insulin formulations as ultra-fast insulins seems to be the better way to manage post-prandial blood glucose peaks.
