Brief summary
The study was carried out in a diabetic patient who was starting a new approach for treatment. Previously the patient was treated with Novo-mix insulin injection twice per day, the physician decided to change the treatment strategy to be with three doses of novo-rapid insulin injections per day plus one injection of Lantus SoloStar in dinner. For two weeks we were monitoring the blood glucose level by the FreeStyle Libre sensor. Moreover, the right statistical technique was used for data analysis.
Detailed description
In this study a diabetic patient is starting a new approach to treatment. Previously, the patient received Novo-Mix insulin injection twice per day (48 Units in breakfast & 28 Units in dinner). Moreover, the physician decided to change the treatment strategy to be with Novo-Rapid insulin injection three times per day (36 Units in breakfast, 36 Units in lunch & 50 Units in dinner) plus one time injection of Lantus SoloStar (50 Units) in dinner. Thus, for monitoring blood glucose level, we are using the FreeStyle Libre-Link. Moreover. Moreover, FreeStyle Libre sensor continuously measures glucose every time when scanned by the mobile and saves the glucose data in the library. Moreover, scanning the FreeStyle Libre sensor with a phone or the reader measures the glucose levels from the interstitial fluid, a thin layer of fluid that surrounds the cells of the tissues in the skin of the patient \[4\]. The Scan was done every 1-2 hours for a full glycemic profile.
Interventions
The FreeStyle Libre sensor continuously measures glucose every minute and saves the glucose data. Scan the sensor at least every 8 hours for a full glycemic profile. The below data is displayed after a typical 1-second scan of the FreeStyle LibreLink app or FreeStyle Libre reader via the sensor:
