Predicted blood glucose from insulin administration based on values from miscoded glucose meters.
OBJECTIVES The 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...
متن کاملBlood glucose meters in the community: Are the results accurate?
independent multidisciplinary group of diabetes health professionals, made available to healthcare professionals a series of leaflets on monitoring blood glucose aimed for use by the person with diabetes. Both of these approaches were positive steps towards achieving clarity of a seemingly difficult situation. Owens et al (2004) and the DMF (Cavan and Hawthorn, 2004) comprehensively covered the...
متن کاملQuality specifications for glucose meters: assessment by simulation modeling of errors in insulin dose.
BACKGROUND Proposed quality specifications for glucose meters allow results to be in error by 5-10% or more of the "true" concentration. Because meters are used as aids in the adjustment of insulin doses, we aimed to characterize the quantitative effect of meter error on the ability to identify the insulin dose appropriate for the true glucose concentration. METHODS Using Monte Carlo simulati...
متن کاملImproving the quality of self-monitoring blood glucose measurement: a study in reducing calibration errors.
BACKGROUND Two independent studies reported that 16% of people who self-monitor blood glucose used incorrectly coded meters. The degree of analytical error, however, was not characterized. Our study objectives were to demonstrate that miscoding can cause analytical errors and to characterize the potential amount of bias that can occur. The impact of calibration error with three selfblood glucos...
متن کاملImportance of manually entering blood glucose readings when wireless-compatible meters are not being used with an insulin pump.
BACKGROUND The objective was to determine if there were differences in blood glucose monitoring (BGM) data downloaded from insulin pumps of patients who use meters that wirelessly transmit data to their insulin pumps (i.e., wireless group) and those who do not (i.e., nonwireless group). METHODS Blood glucose monitoring data were downloaded from the meters and insulin pumps of 47 children and ...
