Frequency of biochemical hypoglycaemia in adults with Type 1 diabetes with and without impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia: no identifiable differences using continuous glucose monitoring

Abstract

Patients with Type 1 diabetes with impaired awareness had a 3-fold higher risk of severe hypoglycaemia and 1.6-fold higher incidence of biochemical hypoglycaemia measured with weekly glucose monitoring compared with normal awareness, but 5 days of CGM did not differentiate those with impaired from those with normal awareness.
