BSPED and UK CHC national surveys support a call and a consideration for CGM access to be widened to patients who suffer from recurrent hypoglycemia such as those with hyperinsulinism or metabolic conditions. The prevention of recurrent hypoglycemia and improving quality of life for patients and carers remain a cornerstone management for people who suffer from frequent hypoglycemia. CGM education is critical to support its use and understand its limitations. Further research is warranted to determine the safety and efficacy of CGM in detection and reduction of hypoglycemic events, impact of hospital stay, and long-term neurological outcomes in those who suffer from recurrent hypoglceamia.
