Fasting-Evoked En Route Hypoglycemia in Diabetes (FEEHD): An Overlooked Form of Hypoglycemia in Clinical Practice.

Conclusion: Our study shows a significant rate of occurrence of FEEHD in the real world (a clinical practice). FEEHD is especially dangerous, as patients often commute (drive) to and from the laboratory facility (potential risk of traffic accidents). Given study limitations, further studies are needed to assess prevalence of FEEHD in other settings and in the general populations. PMID: 30473710 [PubMed]
