No-Coding Strategies for Glucose Monitors: Predicted Blood Glucose from Insulin Administration Based on Values from Miscoded Glucose Meters

摘要

ObjectivesThe proper use of many types of self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) meters requires calibration to match strip code. Studies have demonstrated the occurrence and impact on insulin dose of coding errors with SMBG meters. This paper reflects additional analyses performed with data from Raine et al. (JDST, 2:205–210, 2007). It attempts to relate potential insulin dose errors to possible adverse blood glucose outcomes when glucose meters are miscoded.
