Authors' recommendations:
Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) remains the primary basis for assessing blood glucose control in diabetics.
Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) can be an additional component of diabetic management, but does not replace the measurement of HbA1c. It should be used only if it is likely to lead to a modification of treatment.
