Determination of Glucose Levels during Dialysis Treatment: Different Sensors and Technologies

Table 1

Basic information on the analyzed studies on glucose determination during dialysis treatment; PD: peritoneal dialysis; HD: hemodialysis; D: dialysis; pre-D: predialysis. Of note, some studies include subjects not under dialysis treatment.

Approach	Number of articles	Total number of subjects	Type of subjects
Traditional	8	392	155 in PD, 180 in HD, and 57 in pre-D
CGM	14	431	230 diabetic subjects in HD, 13 nondiabetic subjects (not in dialysis), 36 diabetic subjects in pre-D, 68 type 1 diabetic subjects (not in dialysis), 19 nondiabetic subjects in PD, 39 type 2 diabetic subjects (not in dialysis), and 26 diabetic subjects in PD
Optical	4	39	5 diabetic subjects in HD, 37 subjects in HD

In these subjects undergoing dialysis the possible presence of diabetic condition is not specified.
