[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2163033, member: 480869"] I like your thinking [USER=100904]@Pipp[/USER] Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) is of [B]limited clinical effectiveness[/B] [COLOR=#0000ff](response: not none, and only limited by understanding how to apply it to type 2)[/COLOR] in improving blood glucose ........ SMBG in T2DM is [B]usually[/B] [COLOR=#0000ff](response: not only or limited exclusively to. This doesn’t preclude a well motivated patient educated effectively on its uses and interpretation) [/COLOR]advised where a patient: · is on insulin or · there is evidence of hypoglycaemia or · the person is on oral medication that may increase their risk of hypoglycaemia (while driving/operating machinery) · or the person is pregnant, or is planning to become pregnant, [B]and the patient has an understanding of the benefits of monitoring and how to interpret the results i.e. reinforce lifestyle changes or adjust therapy accordingly. [/B][COLOR=#0000ff][B]([/B]response: this sentence backs up previous response )[/COLOR] Patients who gain no clinical benefit from SMBG should be discouraged from testing. [COLOR=#0000ff](response: therefore those that can gain benefit should be encouraged and as pipp points out how are you to know until they try it!)[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
