The present study aimed to investigate the accuracy of the Glunovo® real-time continuous glucose monitoring system (rtCGMS).

Methods

We conducted a 14-day interstitial glucose level monitoring using Glunovo® rtCGMS on thirty hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes. The flash glucose monitoring (FGM) was used as a self-control. Consistency tests, error grid analysis, and calculation of the mean absolute relative difference (MARD) were performed using R software to assess the accuracy of Glunovo® rtCGMS.

Results

Glunovo® exhibited an overall MARD value of 8.89% during hospitalization, compared to 10.42% for FGM. The overall percentages of glucose values within ±10%/10, ± 15%/15, ± 20%/20, ± 30%/30, and ±40%/40 of the venous blood glucose reference value were 63.34%, 81.31%, 90.50%, 97.29%, and 99.36% for Glunovo®, respectively, compared with 61.58%, 79.63%, 88.31%, 96.22% and 99.23% for FGM. The Clarke Error Grid Analysis showed that 99.61% of Glunovo® glucose pairs and 100.00% of FGM glucose pairs within zones A and B.

Conclusion

Our study confirms the superior accuracy of Glunovo® in monitoring blood glucose levels among hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes.
