Accuracy, Feasibility and Acceptance of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Critically Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

This is a prospective monocenter, non-randomised, open-lable single-group intervention diagnostic trial on the accuracy, reliability and feasibility of the continuous glucose monitoring system in critically systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Newly developed technologies for continuous glucose monitoring in critically SLE patients may improve glycemic control and reduce glucose variability. Critically SLE patients will be performed by continuous glucose monitoring. The subcutaneous glucose will be continuously monitored in critical SLE patients by freestyle libre glucose monitoring system for 14 days. The aim of this study is to evaluate accuracy feasibility and acceptance of these methods. To analyze accuracy sensor glucose levels will be validated due to venous blood measurements with glucose oxidase methods. The influence of several factors like oedema, perspiration, BMI, body temperature, pH-value application of vasoconstrictors on accuracy and feasibility of the particular system would be evaluated. Furthermore the acceptance of physicians and Nursing staff would be evaluated by a questionnaire.
