Correlation between the parameters of continuous blood glucose monitoring and the data of self-control

Abstract

Clycemla detectable before meal during self-control correlated with the parameters of continuous blood glucose monitoring before and after meal. This indicates that glycemia determined by a glucometer before meal reflects the quality of compensation of diabetes mellitus (DM) with long- and short-acting insulin preparations, but only in the patients who carefully calculate the required dose of short-acting insulin. The clear correlation between the results of careful self-control and the data of continuous glucose monitoring points to the fact that the current self-control procedure is an adequate method for attaining the daily glucose lex-els that lead to the goal values of HbA_k and, accordingly, guarantee a reduction In the complications of DM. The correlation of the results of self-control and CGMS data correlations after meals may be used for a rating of self-control quality in the persons receiving intensified Insulin therapy with short-acting insulin In particular: absence of such a correlation is Indicative of poor self-control. Both the averaged blood glucose levels and the area under the glycemlc curve may be used as an Integral estimate as they equally correlate with the resula of blood glucose level self-control.
