Accuracy

The FreeStyle Libre 3 system has a MARD below 8%

  • 7.8% Overall MARD2

  • 93.4% Within ± 20% / ± 1.1 mmol/L2

    Percentage of readings within ± 1.1 mmol/L of YSI values for glucose levels < 3.9 mmol/L and ± 20% when ≥ 3.9 mmol/L.

  • 99.9% in Zones A and B of Consensus Error Grid6

  • 95% patients report a better understanding of their glucose fluctuations8

  • 38% reduction in time spent in hypoglycaemia without increasing HbA1c7

  • 40% reduction in nocturnal hypoglycaemia7

  • 50% reduction in serious hypoglycaemia (≤3.0 mmol/L)7

How it works

Advanced technology designed to fit into your patients' lives

The FreeStyle Libre 3 system is made up of the FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor and the FreeStyle Libre 3 app.◊◊

The sensor is worn on the back of the upper arm and continuously measures the glucose concentration in the body's interstitial fluid day and night.

FreeStyle Libre 3 app

Scan to activate the sensor – no finger pricking or code entry required

Glucose readings every minute of every day for up to 14 days

14-day sensor data storage means no data gaps

Optional, individually controlled glucose alarms^

Learn about glucose alarms on the FreeStyle Libre 3 App page.

Prescribing guidance

For all adults with Type 1 diabetes (T1DM)10

NICE guidelines now support the use of the FreeStyle Libre 3 system (rtCGM11) in all adults aged 18 and over with T1DM.10

Healthcare professional advising patient

If your patient is an adult with Type 2 diabetes (T2D MDI),12  the FreeStyle Libre 2 system might be right for them

NICE guidelines support the use of FreeStyle Libre 2 system in selected adults with type 2 diabetes on MDI.13

 

NICE now recommends HCL Systems For Selected People with T1D6-8

The new NICE technology appraisal recommendation means more type 1 patients qualify for a Hybrid Closed (HCL) compatible real-time CGM system.

Patients can improve glycaemic control with the mylife Loop AID system, authorised to work with the FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor.
