Abstract

Abbott Freestyle Libre (FSL) is a form of ‘wearable’ glucose sensor which enables the monitoring of blood glucose levels without finger-prick testing; FSL has been shown to safely and significantly reduce HbA1c levels in people living with type 1 diabetes who have high levels of HbA1c (Lelarathna et al, 2022). The aim of this study is to To investigate the real-world impact of Abbott Freestyle Libre glucose monitoring (FSL) on physiological, psychological and social measures and how this relates to the lived experience of people living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using these devices, using a mixed methods approach.
