Hypoglycemia after Roux-En-Y gastric bypass: detection rates of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) versus mixed meal test

Assessed under real life conditions by CGM, post-RYGB hypoglycemia was found more frequently than expected. CGM revealed hypoglycemic episodes in 75% of the patients while MMT had a lower detection rate. Thus, CGM may have a role for screening but also for the evaluation of dietary modifications, drug therapy or surgical intervention for hypoglycemia after RYGB.
