Interferences and Limitations in Blood Glucose Self-Testing

Abstract: Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) both in insulintreated and non-insulin-treated people with diabetes is supported by recently published trials, reviews, meta-analyses, and guidelines. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] SMBG is recommended to be performed in a structured approach. 2,5,8,9 It is reported to be only useful when blood glucose (BG) data are interpreted and utilized for immediate therapeutic actions. 3,4,[10][11][12][13] For instance, the need for adequate dosing of insulin heavily depends on reliable glu… Show more

“…Self‐monitoring of blood glucose levels (SMBGL) is widely accepted as being beneficial for long‐term glycemic control in type 2 diabetes, both with or without insulin therapy. However, limitations and poor adherence to regular SMBGL exist due to inconvenience, costs of disposables, and erroneous and reduced measurement frequency resulting in suboptimal glycemic control. Alternatively, continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGM) have emerged that utilize sensor technology inserted subcutaneously to measure interstitial glucose levels across the day that could enhance behavior change adherence and glycemic control.…”

“…Replacing or supplementing self‐measured blood glucose with CGM data can be useful in mitigating inaccuracies in self‐measured blood glucose due to human error, physiological discrepancies, medication interference, or extreme environmental conditions and may be deemed more acceptable to patients and research volunteers. If found to read glucose accurately, the FLP system would seem a valuable CGM for pediatric research use due to the extended, 14‐day sensor wear time, factory calibration, and usability of the device .…”

“…We sought to evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of the FLP glucose monitor in children without diabetes. We examined the accuracy of Replacing or supplementing self-measured blood glucose with CGM data can be useful in mitigating inaccuracies in self-measured blood glucose due to human error, physiological discrepancies, medication interference, or extreme environmental conditions [29][30][31] and may be deemed more acceptable to patients and research volunteers.…”

“…This work highlights the variability in some glucometer test strips for detection of sugars in non-blood based samples and under non-ideal self-testing conditions. 23,34 However, this could also reflect the manufacturer associated product quality issues as suggested by a recent 2016 FDA regulated recall of some Trividia Health TRUETest glucometer test strips. 35 In terms of ease of use, only the glucometer-based kits required limited user training with minimal handling of pipettes/micropipettes if all stock reagents and standards are prepared ahead of time by the instructor or support staff.…”
