The aim of this contribution is to compare the differences between accuracy claimed by the manufacturer in continuous glucose monitoring using the MiniMed Paradigm REAL-Time system with the results obtained in a patient during physical activity. Electrochemical glucose sensor measures the glucose oxidase reaction products.
Measurement accuracy was determined using Clarke Error Grid analysis. It can be concluded that in the normal glucose range (4.4 to 10.0 mmol/ l) was more accurate than the measurements given by the manufacturer, in the opposite case; hyperglycemia is less precise than declared.
