2.1. Continuous glucose monitoring for the prevention of morbidity and mortality in preterm infants

Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2020 Dec 21;12:CD013309. doi: 10.1002/14651858.CD013309.pub2. PMID: 33348448.This Cochrane review aimed to assess the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in preterm infants. It finds limited evidence to support the use of CGM devices to improve mortality or morbidity in preterm infants.Both hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia ar...

BMJ Open. 2020 Dec 24;10(12):e045335. doi: 10.1136/bmjopen-2020-045335. PMID: 33361084This BMJ review aimed to assess the accuracy of CGM devices to detect hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia in preterm infants. The key take home messages from the BMJ review were that the sensitivity for CGM devices to diagnose and detect hypoglycaemia in preterm infants was poor but the specificity was h...

J Pediatr. 2020 Aug;223:3441.e4. doi: 10.1016/j.jpeds.2020.02.079. PMID: 32381469.In this study, the plasma and interstitial (GCMS) glucose levels were measured in term healthy newborns for a period of 5 days to understand the changes in the glucose levels after birth. The findings suggest that in normal term healthy newborns if hypoglycaemia persists after the 4th day of life, t...

Diabetologia. 2021 May;64(5):1133-1143. doi: 10.1007/s00125-021-05390-x. PMID: 33558985.In order to gain some insight into the potential mechanism/s of diminished beta cell function over time, this mouse model of CHI was developed with an activating GCK (Glucokinase) mutation. In the short term, the mice developed mild fasting hypoglycaemia (this was very mild with fasting blood glucose...
