Export Freestyle Libre data - how it works
With Freestyle Libre, diabetics have an uncomplicated procedure for regularly measuring blood sugar levels.
- With the so-called flash glucose monitoring, you place a sensor on the upper arm. To determine the blood sugar level, hold a reader over the sensor for a few seconds. This reader saves the blood glucose values determined for 90 days, after which they are overwritten. The reader is therefore not suitable for long-term storage of the data.
- However, it is straightforward to transfer the data from the reader to the computer. You can download the software for Freestyle Libre free of charge after you have logged into your account.
- The data is exported almost automatically after you have installed the software on the computer. To export the data from the reader, first connect the device to the computer using a USB cable.
- After you call up the Libre Style software, your data stored on the reader is transferred to the computer.
Freestyle Libre enables diabetics to manage the disease comfortably, but the system is not cheap. However, more and more health insurance companies are paying for Freestyle Libre.
