  • Hypoglycaemia: We will use the classification proposed by the American Diabetes Association to categorise hypoglycaemia.98 Severe hypoglycaemia is defined as ‘an event requiring assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagons or other resuscitative actions’. Documented symptomatic hypoglycaemia is defined as ‘an event during which typical symptoms of hypoglycaemia are accompanied by a measured plasma glucose concentration ≤3.9 mmol/L’. Asymptomatic hypoglycaemia is defined as an event not accompanied by typical symptoms of hypoglycaemia but with a measured plasma glucose concentration ≤3.9 mmol/L’. Finally, probable symptomatic hypoglycaemia is defined as ‘an event during which symptoms of hypoglycaemia are not accompanied by a plasma glucose determination’.
