There are four key components of an AGP:
- Median
- 25th–75th Percentile
- 5th–95th Percentile
- Target Glucose Range
Each of these elements tells a clear story about your patients’ glucose control and variability over a selected time period.
Each of these elements tells a clear story about your patients’ glucose control and variability over a selected time period.
The ‘average’ (middle) point of all glucose levels that shows ‘what usually happens’ during a day.2 Look at whether it is in the target glucose range and how much it swings up and down throughout the day.
This band indicates where glucose levels are ‘half the time’. Look at width of the band throughout the day. The wider this band is, the more variable the glucose levels are day-to-day.2
This band indicates more ‘occasional’ high or low glucose levels. Look at areas where the band is widest, this indicates more day-to-day variation at these times.2
This is the corridor where glucose levels should be as much as possible. According to international consensus, the target glucose range is usually 3.9 mmol/L–10 mmol/L for adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes who are not pregnant, not older, or at risk.1
✓ AGP is a visually impactful way to quickly identify times of greater risk of hypoglycaemia or unwanted glucose variability.2
✓ The visual format of the AGP allows the eye to quickly focus on areas that may need review and these can be assessed in terms of how significant they are by their timing, duration and how low glucose has fallen.2
✓ You can use the elements of the AGP in a systematic and straightforward way to help identify trends in glucose control. This includes not only the areas that may require remedial action, but also the parts of each day that reveal when glucose is in range and you are able to reinforce and encourage behaviour choices.2
