dc.description.abstract Diabetes mellitus is a public health problem that causes early and late complications. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has become the main technological tool for real-time glycemic control and has the potential to prevent complications. However, its use has not spread in low- and middle-income countries. We present the experience in the management of a patient with type 1 diabetes with hypoglycemia unawareness in whom the use of real-time CGM achieved both: less hypoglycemic episodes and optimization of insulin regimen. The benefit of real-time CGM in addition to the use of analog insulins and diabetes education resulted in better metabolic control. CGM is a useful tool to consider in patients with hypoglycemia unawareness and to minimize the risk of complications in the future. en_US
dc.description.abstract La diabetes mellitus es un problema de salud que ocasiona complicaciones tempranas y tardías. El monitoreo continuo de glucosa (MCG) se ha convertido en la principal herramienta tecnológica para el control glicémico en tiempo real y evitar las potenciales complicaciones. Sin embargo, su uso no se ha extendido en países de medianos y bajos ingresos. Se presenta la experiencia en el manejo de una paciente adulta con diabetes tipo 1 con hipoglicemias asintomáticas recurrentes en quien el uso del MCG en tiempo real permitió reducir los episodios de hipoglicemias y optimizar la insulinoterapia. La aplicación del MCG sumado al uso de insulinas análogas y educación en el manejo de la enfermedad resultó en un mejor control metabólico. El MCG, especialmente incorporando un sistema de alarma, es una herramienta útil a considerar en pacientes con hipoglicemia frecuente para minimizar el riesgo de complicaciones a futuro. es_PE
