Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is strongly correlated with mean blood glucose levels over 3 months. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends that the goal of HbA1c is <7% in most non-pregnant adults with diabetes, which is directly associated with the reduction of diabetes complications (Studies on the association between SMBG and HbA1c were limited in patients with type 2 diabetes. The A1c-Derived Average Glucose (ADAG) study provided the correlation between HbA1c and mean blood glucose from CGM and SMBG in patients with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and nondiabetic, and allowed the calculation of estimated mean blood glucose for a given HbA1c (
