Improving HbA1c Control in Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes Using Flash Glucose Monitoring: A Retrospective Observational Analysis in Two German Centres.

Patients with T1D or T2D show a reduction in HbA1c by 3 months following initiation of the FreeStyle Libre system. The mean fall in HbA1c at 3 months is strongly negatively correlated with starting HbA1c. This reduction is maintained over 12 months. The significant benefit is seen in patients with a starting HbA1c > 7.5% (58 mmol/mol).
