Consensus recommendations for the use of Ambulatory Glucose Profile in clinical practice
Abstract
This group supports the consensus view that the AGP can be an effective standard for the analysis of glucose data. Interpretation guidelines are reported in the form of an algorithm, developed to demonstrate a step-by-step approach in undertaking the analysis of an AGP report in clinical practice. These are expected to improve glycaemic control, and might help patients to better understand their glucose levels and become more involved in the management of their diabetes. Where hypoglycaemia is identified, the recommendation is to focus, as a priority, on its management. At the end of the consultation, one key message should be reinforced with the patient.
