Telehealth & Continuous Glucose Monitoring

This course is designed to prepare you for interpretation of continuous glucose monitoring data. The program is divided into four modules: the basics of AGP, AGP reports, interpretation of AGP, and case studies. All AGP-related materials were based on data collected using currently available continuous glucose monitoring systems.
Overview

This course is designed to prepare you for interpretation of continuous glucose monitoring data.

All AGP-related materials were based on data collected using currently available continuous glucose monitoring systems.

Module 1: Foundations - From One Glucose Value to the Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP)

Course Highlights

This course highlights how:

  • AGP is constructed in terms of its five frequency distribution curves
  • AGP represents glucose exposure, variability, stability and hypoglycemia risk
  • Recognition of normal glucose patters
  • Appreciation of the predictive value of AGP.
Course Objectives:

Through participation in Module 1 of Continuing Glucose Monitoring, the learner will be able to:

  1. Articulate the differences between a single glucose value from the multiple values provided through Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP) assessment.
  2. Describe the characteristics used in AGP including glucose exposure, variability, stability and oscillations.
  3. Analyze measurements of glucose stability and oscillations, dysglycemia
  4. Determine how to manage glucose patterns and outlier values in AGP.
  5. Describe the AGP characteristics of normal glucose metabolism
  6. Identify how to utilize the predictive value of AGP.
