Biosensors based on free-diffusing redox mediators are presently applied in most of the disposable sensors for glucose self-monitoring [116-118] however, they are not suitable for long-term applications or if the analyte must not be contaminated.

Goals for self-monitored blood glucose levels while on insulin therapy are a preprandial plasma glucose level between 80 and 110 mg/dL, and a 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose level less than 155 mg/dL. 

During the transitional period, test the urine for glucose and acetone at least 3 times/day and have the results reviewed by a physician frequently. Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin also is useful. It is important that patients be taught to correctly and frequently self-monitor blood glucose.
