Evaluation of Conventional Blood Glucose Monitoring as an Indicator of Integrated Glucose Values Using a Continuous Subcutaneous Sensor

Abstract

-The breakfast and dinnertime SMBG values are good indicators of integrated glucose values in the time period preceding them, while the bedtime test correlates well with the integrated values both preceding and following it. This information should aid in the meaningful use of SMBG to evaluate glycemic control and make insulin dose adjustments.
