Diabetes is a common urban chronic disease, according tostatistics, 1 out of 10 people in Hong Kong is a patient. Obesity, poor diet, and lack of exercise are all high-risk factors. When blood sugar management is out of control, it may increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart disease and stroke, and also lead to complications such as neurological diseases, cataracts, and foot ulcers, which will affect the quality of life of patients. To control the disease, continuous monitoring of blood sugar is very important, but how to effectively detect blood sugar? How to choose the right method?
Controlling blood sugar is a long-term battle. At present, the common testing method is “finger tap”, that is, to pierce the finger to collect blood to test the blood sugar level. Affect the intention and effect of monitoring, so that the disease is out of control, burying long-term health risks! In order to facilitate diabetic patients to monitor their physical condition, Abbott has launched an intelligent system “FreeStyle Libre” that can monitor changes in sugar levels for 14 consecutive days. After factory calibration, no fingertip blood collection is required. Only a sensor and a mobile phone program are needed to obtain 14-day comprehensive data. And accurate glucose readings greatly improve the efficiency of continuous health monitoring and reduce the pain of “finger finger” bleeding!
1. Convenient and easy to use in any occasion
When using the blood collection testing method, you have to bring a lot of tools every time you go out, including blood glucose meters, test strips, cotton and other disinfection supplies. You have to “tip your fingers” before and after meals, which is embarrassing and can’t be fun, but taking blood in the company Privacy is also insufficient. And “FreeStyle Libre” only needs to wear a small sensor on the back of the arm, and can scan and measure the glucose level through the “FreeStyle LibreLink” mobile phone program.
2. Personally record data at any time
Hypoglycemia can occur at any time, even in the early hours of the morning. When sleeping, patients need to keep getting up to check their blood sugar by “tapping their fingers”, making it difficult for patients to have a good rest. “FreeStyle Libre” is equipped with a continuous glucose level monitoring function. The precision waterproof design is one-click to wear. Even through clothes, it can automatically measure and continuously record glucose readings. You don’t need to get up every hour to check your blood sugar, and you can sleep in the sky!
3. Accurately track blood sugar changes
Every time you check your blood sugar, you will only know the current blood sugar reading, and fail to detect the trend of blood sugar readings over a long period of time, so you may miss the situation where the blood sugar level fluctuates greatly. The “FreeStyle Libre” sensor is valid for up to 14 days and can be used continuously to obtain real-time and past 8-hour glucose rise and fall, so that you can more accurately understand your physical condition and properly manage diabetes.
4. Assist in overall health management
In the past, diabetic patients had to record their blood sugar values with “bookboy”, which was quite time-consuming and troublesome. In addition to the possible loss of records, it also took time to integrate other data, such as daily diet, insulin injection records, etc., making it difficult to formulate effective health management. “FreeStyle Libre” not only monitors glucose levels, but also adds notes to record diet, insulin injections, exercise and other related matters, and integrates all data in the program to establish a healthy lifestyle. Data can help doctors understand patients’ conditions and provide better treatment plans.
All in all, “FreeStyle Libre” can solve the inconvenience of “finger-tapping” blood sugar testing, and use smart technology to track health status, monitor changes in sugar levels more efficiently, and prevent diabetic complications. Of course, in order to truly control the health, it is necessary to rely on the patient’s self-discipline to control the diet, and it is also very important to properly relax the pressure. When you feel anxious, you will increase the fluctuation of blood sugar level. Doing more simple exercises, such as taking a walk with a fur child, has already helped the condition!
