FreeStyle Libre question

[linda_b]

Hi all,

I'm a week into using my FreeStyle Libre, have to say I love it.
I always suspected my blood sugars fall and spike during my sleep but to actually see how low they actually go is mad!
Just a quick question I'm still getting to know the Meter and have just come across 'sensor data captured 88%' can someone tell me what this means? I would look in the manual but I've lost it!

Thanks

The Libre Sensor has an 8 hour memory so when you scan it, it pulls through the past 8 hours data. So if you scan at least every 8 hours, the Sensor Data captured will eventually be at 100%. There may be times when no data is available, for example if it gets really wet, I have found that it can sometimes lose the data. But as long as you keep scanning every 8 hours you will get a high percentage data captured.
