The Predictive Low Glucose Management System in Prevention of Clinically Significant Hypoglycemia in Type 1 Diabetes. A Preliminary Study Identifying the Most Common Events Leading Up to Hypoglycemia During Insulin Pump Therapy

Background/aim Prevention of hypoglycemia remains a major challenge in diabetic management, despite the introduction of modern insulin pumps in daily clinical practice. The Low Glucose Suspend (LGS) and the newer Predictive Low Glucose Management (PLGM) systems incorporated in the Medtronic insulin pumps have shown promising results in prevention of hypoglycemia. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of the 2 systems relative to the frequency of...
