Reading your glucose levels
FreeStyle Libre sensor and reader
- The Sensor Glucose Readings screen appears after you scan your sensor.
- Your reading includes your current glucose, a glucose trend arrow indicating which way your glucose is going, and a graph of your current and stored glucose readings.
Daily patterns
The graph shows the variability of glucose levels over multiple days to give a quick snapshot of glycaemic control.
The thick black line shows the midpoint of your glucose readings. (Daily Patterns needs at least 5 days of glucose data.)
Time in Target
(Time in Range)
This graph shows how much percentage of time sensor readings were above, below and within the Target Glucose Range.
Low glucose events
The graph shows information about the number of low glucose events measured by your sensor. Low glucose events are recorded when glucose readings are lower than 70mg/dL10 for longer than 15 minutes.
As easy as 1,2,3
Apply
Apply the sensor to the back of your upper arm with the applicator.

10. A finger prick test using a blood glucose meter is required during times of rapidly changing glucose levels when interstitial fluid glucose levels may not accurately reflect blood glucose levels or if hypoglycaemia or impending hypoglycaemia is reported by the system or when symptoms do not match the system readings. For a complete glycaemic picture, scan once every 8 hours.
