Abstract

The world has already accumulated extensive experience in the use of continuous glycemic monitoring using the FreeStyle Libre Flash monitoring system in patients with diabetes mellitus. The article presents an analysis of recent publications on this issue. Based on the data analyzed, it can be argued that the use of the FreeStyle Libre Flash monitoring system in patients with DM1 and DM2 on insulin therapy can lead to a decrease in the level of glycated hemoglobin and glycemic variability, a significant decrease in the number and duration of hypoglycemic episodes, the risk of developing ketoacidosis, and an improvement in quality of life indicators.
