  2. STUDY OBJECTIVE • To review recent evidence about hypoglycemia from the American Diabetes Association and The Endocrine Society • To provide guidance about how this information should be incorporated into clinical practice Seaquist E. R. et al. Diabetes Care 2013;36:1384-1395

  3. PARTICIPANTS • Five members of the American Diabetes Association and five members of The Endocrine Society with expertise in different aspects of hypoglycemia contributed • Planning conference call and a 2-day meeting attended by staff from both organizations occurred • Subsequent communications took place via e-mail and phone calls Seaquist E. R. et al. Diabetes Care 2013;36:1384-1395

  4. EVIDENCE • Writing group considered data from recent clinical trials and other studies to update the prior workgroup report • Unpublished data were not used • Expert opinion was used to develop some conclusions Seaquist E. R. et al. Diabetes Care 2013;36:1384-1395

  5. CONSENSUS PROCESS • Consensus was achieved by group discussion during conference calls and face-to-face meetings and by iterative revisions of the written document • Document reviewed and approved by the American Diabetes Association’s Professional Practice Committee in October 2012 and approved by the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors in November 2012 • Document reviewed and approved by The Endocrine Society’s Clinical Affairs Core Committee in October 2012 and by Council in November 2012 Seaquist E. R. et al. Diabetes Care 2013;36:1384-1395

  6. CONCLUSIONS • Workgroup reconfirmed the previous definitions of hypoglycemia in diabetes, reviewed the implications of hypoglycemia on both short- and long-term outcomes, considered the implications of hypoglycemia on treatment outcomes, presented strategies to prevent hypoglycemia, and identified knowledge gaps that should be addressed by future research • Tools were provided for patients to report hypoglycemia at each visit and for clinicians to document counseling Seaquist E. R. et al. Diabetes Care 2013;36:1384-1395
