[QUOTE="UK T1, post: 2269692, member: 503751"] Really interesting thread. I have been given different reasponses from consultants (who say aim for 48 for long term complications) and DSNs (who say aim for 53 to not risk hypo awareness). They all say to go for time in target though, and luckily I've had the libre since Nov 2019 which has made levelling out spikes around meals so much easier! They have a new report on LibreView called the AGP which says a 5% increase in time spent in rangeg (which they class as between 3.9-10mmol/L) is clinically beneficial. Like others have said, my diabetes team have always stressed the importance of avoiding spikes in glucose levels, as a low HbA1c can be because half the time is spent high and half the time super low, which obviously isn't good. I am told to aim to be between 5.5-6.5 during the day, 6.5-8 before bed. This obviously doesn't always happen, but good to remind myself of the goals! [/QUOTE]
