CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitoring)

Brief summary

The major aim is to evaluate accuracy of 2 Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems (CGMS) : Dexcom G6® and FreeStyle Libre® in standardized hypoxemia conditions (artificial normobaric hypoxia). Our purpose is to demonstrate the good performance and calibration of these CGM sensors in hypoxemia conditions.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Mean Absolute Relative Difference (MARD)Day 1The primary endpoint for measuring the accuracy of CGMs (individually) compared to venous blood glucose was the mean absolute relative difference, expressed as a percentage. As the percentages obtained did not follow a normal distribution, they are expressed in the table as median and IQR.

Participant flow

Recruitment details

Recruitment period: May 2022 to November 2024 at CHU de Poitiers. Healthy volunteers were recruited from the Clinical Investigation Center (CIC) volunteer registry. Participants with diabetes were identified and referred by general practionner and endocrinologists from the hospital.

Pre-assignment details

Two severe adverse events were recorded (one road traffic accident and one domestic accident). Both occurred before randomization, preventing one of the participants from being randomized.
