Objective: To assess the accuracy of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in medical intensive care unit (MICU) patients. Methods: A Medtronic Enlite® sensor accuracy was assessed versus capillary blood glucose (CBG) and plasma glucose (PG) using the mean absolute relative difference (MARD), surveillance error grid (SEG) analysis and modified Bland-Altman plots. Results: Using CBG as a reference, MARD was 6.6%. Overall, 99.7% of the CGM readings were within the “no risk” zone. No significant differences in accuracy were seen within vasopressor subgroups. Using PG as the reference, MARD was 8.8%. The surveillance error grid analysis showed 95.2% of glucose readings were within the “no risk” zone. There were no device-related adverse events. Conclusion: The CGM sensor showed acceptable accuracy in MICU patients, regardless of vasopressor use.

Hyperglycemia is detrimental to postoperative islet cell survival in patients undergoing total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT). This makes continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) a useful management tool. We evaluated the accuracy of the Dexcom G6 CGM in pediatric intensive care unit patients following TPIAT. Twenty-five patients who underwent TPIAT had Dexcom G6 glucose values compared to paired serum glucose values. All paired glucose samples were obtained within 5 minutes of each other during the first seven days post TPIAT. Data were evaluated using mean absolute difference (MAD), mean absolute relative difference (MARD), %20/20, %15/15 accuracy, and Clarke Error Grid analysis. Exclusions included analysis during the CGM “warm-up” period and hydroxyurea administration (known drug interference). A total of 183 time-matched samples were reviewed during postoperative days 2–7. MAD was 14.7 mg/dL and MARD was 13.4%, with values of 15.2%, 14.0%, 12.1%, 11.4%, 13.2% and 14.1% at days 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7, respectively. Dexcom G6 had a %20/20 accuracy of 78%, and a %15/15 accuracy of 64%. Clarke Error Grid analysis showed that 77% of time-matched values were clinically accurate, and 100% were clinically acceptable. The Dexcom G6 CGM may be an accurate tool producing clinically acceptable values to make reliable clinical decisions in the immediate post-TPIAT period.
