Inpatient and Post-hospital Discharge Assessment of Glycemic Control by Capillary Point-of-care Glucose Testing and by Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Insulin-treated Patients With Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes: Dexcom G6 Observational Study
This is an exploratory prospective study primary aiming to evaluate differences between
Point-of-care (POC) testing (standard of care) and Dexcom G6 CGM (Continues Glucose
Monitoring sensor system) in 1) glycemic control measured by mean daily blood glucose and 2)
identifying hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic events - in patients with type 1 and type 2
diabetes treated with basal bolus insulin regimen.

diabetes treated with basal bolus insulin regimen.
Several studies have shown that the use of a device that can measure blood glucose levels
every 5 minutes is more effective in identifying low blood glucose (hypoglycemia) and high
blood glucose (hyperglycemia) when compared to regular measurements with fingersticks [point
of care (POC)].
