Libre readings

[Charl]

Had a telephone conversation with my dietician yesterday, first one since having the libre which has been three weeks, to cut it short she said she was very happy with my readings , looking back through my readings there's plenty of times when it's been above 12, usually drops down around 3 hours, also dropped into the high 4s where my alarm has alerted me, what is it they look for where they decide your doing OK or not. Thanks

I believe they are looking at Time In Range (TIR) with minimum "excursions" into hypo land.
For most, I think the target is something like 70% TIR.
@everydayupsanddowns has quoted it a few times but I failed to find it. Hopefully, he (or someone with a better memory than I) will pop in a remind me.

When you upload your Libre results to Libreview,(or have them sent automatically if you're using a phone) one of the graphs highlights targets for time spent at various levels, and the one for 3.9-10 is 70%. There are other targets for low, very low, high, and very high, all adding up to 100%.

There’s a link in the Useful Links for Newbies thread if you need to find it in the future @helli 🙂

Time In Range - useful for Libre / CGM wearers

I've been meaning to post this for ages, but kept forgetting! At the ADA this year the international consensus paper on TIR (time in range) was published by a panel of experts with a huge amount of knowledge and expertise in supporting people to use continuous data to help manage their...
