The measurement of blood glucose in critically ill patients is still performed in many ICUs with glucose meters and capillary samples. Several prevalent factors in these patients affect the accuracy of the results and should be interpreted with caution. A weak recommendation from the Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) suggests the use of arterial bloo...

Our objective was to determine the effect of therapeutic concentrations of N-acetylcysteine, following intravenous infusion, on the measurement of blood glucose using a Roche Diagnostics glucose dehydrogenase-linked glucose meter compared to hospital laboratory methods. N-acetylcysteine was added to aliquots of blood, with glucose promptly measured...

Objective To understand the blood glucose meter buying behavior of type 2 diabetic patients with poor glycemic control (two or more HbA1c ≥ 8% during visits in one year) and identify factors influencing it. Methods A survey was conducted among 585 diabetic patients with poor glycemic control who were treated in the outpatient or inpatient clinics o...

Advances in devices for people with diabetes have demonstrated many improvements; yet, the number of adverse events has almost doubled from 2018 to 2019. It is a challenge to examine these events due to a difficult query tool on the FDA website. There are several possible reasons why effort is not devoted to decreasing the number of adverse events ...

Two papers have appeared evaluating interferences in glucose meters. These studies are method comparisons with the added information of the medication(s) taken by the subjects. This paper contrasts a traditional interference study with the method comparison protocols. Unlike the advice in CLSI EP7, a substance that interferes should be reported eve...

The use of high-dose vitamin C in cancer care has offered promising results for some patients. However, the intravenous (IV) doses used for these patients can reach concentrations that interfere with some strip-based glucose meters. We characterized the impact of vitamin C interference, from standard to the very high doses used for some cancer prot...

Intestinal Alkaline Phosphatase (IAP) was investigated as a potential biomarker to monitor colitis in a mouse model of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). We developed a Point-Of-Care (POC) assay to detect IAP with a glucose meter in 15 min. We synthesized a paracetamol-bearing compound specifically cleaved by IAP to release paracetamol, which can be...

Background: Effective treatment and close monitoring in children with congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) are important to prevent hypoglycemic-associated brain damage. The current monitoring approach involves measuring plasma glucose intermittently, but this does not provide a comprehensive assessment of glycemic control and may fail to detect episode...

Costs for the treatment of diabetes and its comorbidities are a major international issue. A recent randomized clinical trial showed that the introduction of color range indicator (CRI)-based glucose meters (GMs) positively affects the HbA1c of patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, when compared to GMs without a CRI. This budget impact analysis...
