Is the Hypoglycemic Confidence Scale (HCS) a reliable and valid measure of hypoglycemic confidence in adults with T1D and insulin-using T2D?
The Hypoglycemic Confidence Scale (HCS) is a validated tool for assessing hypoglycemic confidence, a distinct dimension of patient experience, in adults with T1D and insulin-using T2D.
Hypoglycemic confidence is a unique dimension of patient experience, different from hypoglycemic fear, and is deserving of further study. The HCS is a reliable valid measure of hypoglycemic confidence for adults with T1D and insulin-using T2D.
