GMI in Freestyle and HBA1C
Hello.
I would like to know if the data offered by Freestyle in its GMI reports are approximate to the Laboratory HBA1C.
My son did the blood test when entering the emergency room and they have not done it again. How much is usually the usual?
We know that when its HBA1C entered it was 9.3%.And now in the reports of Libreview, 6.4% GMI comes out.Until 6 months he has no appointment with the endocrine, and it was to know if he is on the right track
All the best,
Lucia
The sensors are approximate.If the sensors have worked well the calculation is more precise.
But even being approximate calculations where appropriate it seems that it is on the right track !!
Excellent

To me, the edition of glyd that the sensor gives me usually over 0.3-0.4.I am agitated according to the.SEMSIE in 6.1, in blood at least 6.5, I have verified it on several occasions.
Sorry, I wanted to say that the sensor gives it 0.3-0.4 below the blood
Hi @Lucia70,
As the companions commented to you, it is approximate, it depends as they tell you on the accuracy of the sensor but more or less it is going well.
The ideal is up to 5.7% for a Normaglycemia, a diabetic with good control is around 6-6.5% so it is great.
Freestyle always gives me less.
You can get an idea, but 100% is not.
The sensor gave me 5.3 and the analytics gave me 5.9.
My brother gave 6.2 and the analytics gave him 6.3.
That is, there is a difference but it is clear that your child is on the right track.

Free makes an estimate from the measures, so that it incorporates their error and the imprecision of the correlation.
First of all, the value is only reliable with 3 months of data.Then, in my experience, it is reliable in the sense of variation, that is, if the glycosilada improves, the estimate of the free and vice versa.
However, I have never been very far from 6. Right now, he tells me 6.2, and in the analysis last week 5.9.And that despite the fact that I think the free tends to measure low with respect to capillary.It caught my attention, on other occasions it seemed more.
Good luck with the kid.

It always matches me.Once there was a small difference, the analysis was inferior to the Free forecast, but the rest of the time it has been exact.
I take this question.How long should it happen for free to show you the estimate?I've been with him for 3 days and I can't find info about this data.
Greetings.
From the first day you show it to you.In the menu where AC1 says.
Another thing is that with a few days it is not a reliable fact, but you can see it.

Wow, I don't know, I remember that since I looked at her the first time, and I had been calculated ...
Maybe you need at least a week ...
You tell me when you get out, that I have been curious ...
