Most devices require
frequent calibration
Adult Patients With T1DM
Frequent BGM is an essential element in effective T1DM
management because it:
Detects glycemic
variability and
hypoglycemia
Informs treatment
modifications and
reflects the impact
of food intake and
physical activity1-3
Provides important
information on
treatment efficacy1,4
All major clinical practice guidelines recommend
individualized, frequent BGM for patients with T1DM1,3-6
CGM is particularly important for patients with a history of
severe hypoglycemia or hypoglycemia unawareness1,3,7-8
BGM = blood glucose monitoring; CGM = continuous glucose monitoring; T1DM = type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Pediatric Patients With T1DM
Challenges of glycemic control in pediatric patients:
Changing insulin requirements
Unpredictable food intake and physical activity
Concerns about hypoglycemic risk
Close monitoring needed to recognize when the patient outgrows their
insulin dose(s)1
CGM should be considered for regular daily use in pediatric patients with
T1DM who perform frequent blood glucose testing and have:2
•
•
•
•
•
•
Severe hypoglycemic episodes
Hypoglycemic unawareness (especially in young children)
Nocturnal hypoglycemia
Wide glucose excursions, regardless of A1C
Suboptimal glycemic control, with A1C exceeding target range
A1C levels <7%, to maintain target glycemic control while limiting hypoglycemia risk
T1DM = type 1 diabetes mellitus; A1C = glycated hemoglobin; CGM = continuous glucose monitoring.

Adult Patients With T2DM
BGM should be individualized and accessible to all patients
receiving any therapy for T2DM1
Patients receiving non-insulin agents
associated with hypoglycemia:
• Perform BGM at least once daily (fasting)
and periodically at other times
Patients at low risk for increased
hypoglycemia risk and not at goal:
•
Perform structured testing (eg, before
meals and at bedtime) at least weekly
Limited data on the use of real-time CGM in patients with
T2DM, although available evidence is promising2-3
Trials are ongoing to evaluate the potential use of CGM
(masked or unmasked) in patients with T2DM
BGM = blood glucose monitoring; CGM = continuous glucose monitoring; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Adult Patients With T2DM
BGM is recommended for patients not taking insulin if1
• Patients and/or caregivers have knowledge, skills, and willingness to
incorporate BGM and therapeutic adjustments into diabetes care plan
• Protocols are individualized to meet patient educational/behavioral/clinical
requirements and have been agreed upon by the patient and clinician
If the patient is on insulin therapy, BGM should be tailored by therapy type
• Patients taking prandial and basal insulin should perform BGM when fasting,
premeal, at bedtime, and periodically during the night
• Patients taking only basal insulin (with or without other diabetes medications)
should perform BGM at minimum when fasting and at bedtime
BGM = blood glucose monitoring; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Pregnancy Complicated by Diabetes
BGM is integral to diabetes management in pregnancy1
Real-time results enable women to make informed daily
self-care decisions regarding diet, exercise, and insulin
Retrospective analysis of BGM data helps to:
Enable clinicians to develop individualized care plans2
Inform decisions related to insulin initiation and adjustment
Recognize the need for interventions to improve self-monitoring3
Potential benefit of CGM in pregnant women with preexisting
diabetes is unclear
BGM = blood glucose monitoring; CGM = continuous glucose monitoring.

Pregnancy Complicated by Diabetes
GDM managed
with MNT
• Check blood glucose levels 4 times per day:
• Before breakfast (fasting) and after 3
largest meals of the day
Preexisting
diabetes
• Before attempting to become pregnant,
maintain glycemic control as close to normal
as possible for 3 to 6 months1
Diabetes
managed with
insulin
• Monitor glucose both before and after each
meal (ie, at least 6 times per day)
GDM = gestational diabetes mellitus; MNT = medical nutrition therapy.

Glucose Monitoring Accuracy and Precision
Accuracy is defined as the closeness of agreement between a
glucose test result and an accepted reference value
Accuracy improves when it has minimal bias and relative error
(%CV, MARD, and minimal absolute error)
Point accuracy refers to blood glucose values and sensor readings
at single points in time
Bias: systematic error in meter or
sensor measurements
Precision: measurement reproducibility
(irrespective of accuracy)
Measurements may cluster around
May be due to improper calibration,
an erroneous value
It is possible to derive a measure of
precision without knowing the true
value
lack of calibration, or calibration with
an inaccurate BGM
May vary depending on the glucose
levels being measured
BGM = blood glucose monitoring; CV = coefficient of variation; MARD = mean absolute relative deviation.

Measures of Accuracy for BGM and CGM
Arithmetic deviation
• The difference between true value and measured value
Absolute deviation
• The absolute value of the arithmetic deviation
Absolute relative deviation (ARD)
• The absolute deviation in relation to true value
Mean absolute relative deviation (MARD):
• The mean value of individual absolute relative
deviations
Median absolute relative deviation (MedARD):
• The median value of individual absolute relative
deviations
BGM = blood glucose monitor/monitoring; CGM = continuous glucose monitor.

Understanding Clinical Standards for Accuracy of
Current BGMs and CGMs: Error Grids
The Parkes Error Grid (2000)1 is
one way to measure accuracy
Grid regions reflect the potential
risk severity of incorrect
treatment triggered by the
measurement error
Device performance typically
reported as percentage of glucose
values in zone A or zones A + B
(higher percentages indicate
better performance)
BGM = blood glucose monitor; CGM = continuous glucose monitor.

What Impacts BGM Accuracy?
Manufacturing defects and test-strip lot-to-lot variations
impact BGM accuracy and introduce bias with differences
up to 11%1-3
Underfilling the test strip can introduce errors >20%4
Use of alternate sites (sampling from palm, upper arm,
forearm, thigh, or calf) can generate inaccurate results
Particularly true when glucose levels are changing rapidly
after meals or exercise
when the patient is ill or under stress
shortly after insulin administration5,6

Other Factors Affecting Test Results
Factors that interfere with glucose oxidase or glucose-1-
dehydrogenase enzyme or BGM degrade overall accuracy:
Competing blood substrates (eg, maltose, vitamin C)1,2
Environmental issues (eg, cold temperature, high altitude)
Contaminants on the skin from food sources and lotions3
Acetaminophen use
Physical compression of the CGM sensor during sleep4,5
Reduced accuracy and precision in tests performed by
patients/other lay users compared with trained health
professionals6

Communicating BGM Device Accuracy Data
Sample label information for meter and test-strip boxes
Recent FDA proposed
guidance document
suggests labeling each
BGM device and its
test strips or sensors
with specific
performance
characteristics2
This allows clinicians
and patients to make
informed choices
Your ABC meter result may vary slightly from your actual blood glucose value. This may
be due to slight differences in technique and natural variation in the testing technology.
The chart below shows the results of a study where 350 typical users used the ABC
meter to test their blood glucose levels. For example, in this study, the ABC meter gave
results within 15% of their true blood glucose level 340 out of 350 times.

Improving the Quality of Glycemic Control:
More Than Measurement Accuracy Is Needed
Features that provide additional information and give context to raw
glucose numbers include:
Weekly or monthly glucose averages to highlight glycemic variability patterns
On-screen analysis capabilities display glucose trend lines over time, and
arrows reflect magnitude of current glucose rate-of-change
BGM clock setting must be accurate, clearly visible, easy to adjust, and
maintained during battery change1
Clocks in meter, CGM, and insulin pump should be synchronized (automatically
if possible), with accommodation for travel across time zones
To effectively use these informative features, many users will require
guidance
Clinicians should consider ease and speed of BGM data downloading
BGM = blood glucose monitor; CGM = continuous glucose monitor.

Post-approval Meter Accuracy
Independent laboratories should confirm ongoing routine
quality assurance verification of test-strip lots using a
standardized methodology1
Studies confirm:
Review of post-approval accuracy of 27 meters under 2003 ISO
15197 standard; >40% of meters failed to meet standard by which
they had received approval2
2014 study found only 12 (44.4%) of 27 available BGMs met most
recent 2013 ISO 15197 standard3
FDA approval does not mean a BGM will continue to meet
FDA accuracy requirements
BGM = blood glucose monitor; FDA = US Food and Drug Administration; ISO = International Organization for Standardization.

Glucometrics: Downloading and Interpreting
GM Data
Glucometrics is the analysis and display of glucose data1 and can
provide insights into how medications, diet, stress, and activity
contribute to diabetes control2,3
Patient-to-health care team communication methods can include:
Logbook during office visit
Computer outputs
Periodic phone calls, faxes, or emails to office
Automated transfer from meter or sensor to Internet for review
Automated interpretation by glucose monitoring device
Glucose and related data should be integrated with an electronic
health record
GM = glucose monitoring.

Representing Glucometric Data
Mean, median, and %CV metrics describe overall
glycemia
Average glucose level may represent the mean or median
The SD of glucose is highly correlated with mean glucose
%CV is usually the best method to characterize variability1-6
Other methods describe actionable patterns to help
clinicians optimize diabetes therapy
In graphical presentation, “standard day,” “modal day,”7,8 or AGP
displays individual glucose measurements (pooled over multiple
days) by time of day on a single 24-hour scale
AGP = ambulatory glucose profile; CV = coefficient of variation; SD = standard deviation.

Ambulatory Glucose Profile
To generate AGP:
Blood glucose levels are measured via BGM or CGM
All glucose data pooled and analyzed as if it had been collected during a single
24-hour period
Result is a standardized software report that can be displayed graphically
AGP provides an excellent starting point for a standardized computerized
display of BGM and/or CGM data by time of day1-3

Other Graphical Displays of Glucometric Data
Other ways that graphic
data related to glucose
changes over time can be
displayed
Pie graphs
Simple bar charts
Box plots
Scattergrams
Stacked bar charts
Histograms
The purpose of these displays is to help clinicians identify and
prioritize clinical problems and educate and motivate the
patient to achieve improved glycemic control

Recommendations
Patients should be educated to interpret and use GM data to:
Enhance their ability to self-adjust therapy
Decide when to seek medical assistance
To assess glucometrics, physicians should first examine:
Overall statistics (mean, SD, %CV)
Distribution of glucose values
Glucose by date, by time of day and in relationship to meals, and by
day of the week
The most helpful glucometric graphical displays show:
Graphs of glucose by date
AGP by time of day
Stacked bar charts and/or box plots by time of day, in relation to
meals, and by day of the week
AGP = ambulatory glucose profile; CV = coefficient of variation; GM = glucose monitoring; SD = standard deviation.

Glucose Monitoring, Looking Forward
Improvements in progress
Data-sharing via the Internet
Use of additional displays
Improved usability
Comprehensive and standardized integration of multiple
data inputs
Several mobile health applications have been developed,
enabling patients to monitor and adjust their lifestyle and
therapy on a real-time basis
CGM developments may broaden the appeal and
applicability of CGM in T1DM and T2DM
CGM = continuous glucose monitoring; T1DM = type 1 diabetes mellitus; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus.
