Glycaemic control is a key factor in the correct management of diabetes as it is strictly connected to possible severe complications. Free Style Libre, the new glucose self-monitoring system introduced by Abbot, enables patients to measure glucose without prickling their fingers, thanks to a technology that continually measures glycaemic variability. Data are processed by Ambulatory Glucose Profile, an advanced software equipped with an interface which is easily understandable by patients and extremely helpful for diabetologists, who can provide patients customized therapies.
