Overview

New glucose monitoring technologies improve diabetes compensation and reduce the risk of hypoglycemia. The aim of the multicenter pilot project of retrospective analysis of the use of is-CGM (PRAVis-CGM: Retrospective Analysis of is-CGM Project) is to evaluate the benefit of intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring for improving the quality of therapy of geriatric patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin hospitalized in inpatient or long-term care beds. The main goals are the quantification of hypoglycemic events using the time spent in lower values of glycemia concentration and providing data for the implementation of is-CGM into the routine operation of the inpatient facility. We assume that the selected parameters can subsequently be defined as indicators of the quality of care for seniors treated with insulin during hospitalization.
