  • SMBG = self-monitoring of blood glucose.

  • a Minor hypoglycemia event defined as signs and symptoms precipitated by known or modifiable causes and could be quickly self-managed with or without ingesting fast-acting glucose.

  • b Actual minor hypoglycemia event defined as self-reported minor hypoglycemia and a corresponding objective SMBG reading of <72 mg/dL.
