What should I do if I get a Low Glucose Soon! warning, which predicts a potential hypo (hypoglycemic episode)?

If your Low Glucose Predict feature is warning you about a potential hypo (hypoglycemic episode), then the probability is very high that you will experience a hypo within the next 30 minutes. Immediately take measures to avoid the hypo:

Eat or drink 15g of carbs, e.g., 100ml of juice or some gummy bears. Check your glucose after 15 minutes.

If glucose remains below  3.9 mmol/L, take another 15g of carbs. Check glucose again after 15 minutes; repeat step 3 if glucose is below  3.9 mmol/L.

Once glucose is back to normal, have a meal or snack (e.g., bread, fruits, yogurt).

You are advised to not change your overall therapy based on the data displayed without prior consultation with your HCP. If you have questions about your therapy, contact your HCP.

What should I do if the Accu-Chek SmartGuide Predict app predicts a potential hypo in more than 30 minutes?

If the Accu-Chek SmartGuide Predict app predicts a hypo within the general 2-hour glucose prediction range, then you can prepare and take appropriate actions to help avoid a potential hypo. It is crucial not to overreact. First wait and watch how your glucose level develops. Monitor your glucose levels closely so you can react in time. All treatment decisions should be discussed with your diabetes care team. Also refer to link auf prediction training content.

What should I do if the Accu-Chek SmartGuide Predict app predicts a potential high (hyperglycemic episode)?

If the Accu-Chek SmartGuide Predict app predicts a high (hyperglycemic episode) within the next 30 minutes:

Consider doing some physical activity (e.g., going for a walk) or making an insulin correction to stay in range. If you have already injected bolus insulin, wait until the insulin comes to its full effect before you take further measures.

In addition to monitoring the excursion of the glucose prediction on the Accu-Chek SmartGuide Predict app, check the actual CGM value and monitor the course of the glucose carefully to asssess whether further action is needed.

All treatment decisions should be discussed with your diabetes care team.

If the Accu-Chek SmartGuide Predict app predicts a high within the next 31-120 minutes:

Wait and watch. Do not act upon this prediction now. Closely monitor your predictions and current glucose values. Note that glucose influencing factors like carbs intake, insulin injection, and activity can change the prediction again. Check your prediction in 30 min and then decide if exercise or insulin for correction is needed. All treatment decisions should be discussed with your diabetes care team.

What should I do if I get a Night Low Forecast, which predicts a potential nocturnal hypo?

If you get a Night Low Forecast, which predicts a potential nocturnal hypo, then there is a high chance (>30%) of having low glucose (below 3.9 mmol/L) during the night.

To minimize the risk of a nighttime hypo, either eat a snack containing complex carbohydrates (like a cereal bar) or prepare so you can react quickly during the night. All treatment decisions should be discussed with your diabetes care team. Also refer to link auf prediction training content.

What are the reasons for the identified glucose patterns? How can I work on identified patterns?

There can be various reasons for identified glucose patterns. When the app determines the root causes of certain glucose patterns, it offers a few suggestions. However, you should always discuss your specific diabetes profile and the associated therapy with your diabetes care team before you make any comprehensive adjustments.
