Low Blood Glucose Index or High Blood Glucose Index
These figures represent the frequency and the resulting risk of blood glucose values being too low or too
high. Figures should be as low as possible.
The following table provides an overview to assess the risk of blood glucose values being too low or too
high:
Risk
minimal
low
medium
high
w WARNING
The index values for low blood glucose or high blood glucose in the table are not blood glucose values. Ask
your healthcare professional if you want to change your therapy based on the index values.
