Observational StudyAccuracy assessment of online glucose monitoring by a subcutaneous enzymatic glucose sensor during exercise in patients with type 1 diabetes treated by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion.
Online continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) during physical exercise would be highly useful in patients with insulin-treated diabetes. For this reason, this study assessed whether such a goal could be reached with a subcutaneous 'needle-type' enzymatic sensor. ⋯ Blood glucose changes during intensive physical-exercise bouts performed by CSII-treated type 1 diabetes patients can be estimated with acceptable clinical accuracy by online CGM.
