OBJECTIVE—Hypoglycemia and wide glucose excursions continue to be major obstacles achieving target HbA1c values the associated reductions in long-term complications (and economic costs) people with insulin-treated diabetes. In this study we evaluated accuracy, safety, clinical effectiveness of a continuous glucose-sensing device.
