Hello. I’m Thomas Danne. I’m a Professor of Paediatrics at Hannover Medical School at the Children’s Hospital Auf der Bult, which is the largest paediatric diabetes centre in Germany. I will talk to you about time in range, a new concept of looking at glycaemic control.

This course consists of one module created to introduce you to time in range, a new concept in glycaemic management that challenges the role of HbA1c.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this module, you will be able to:

Explain the factors that influence HbA1c other than glycaemic control

Explain how improved time in range can impact upon the progression of diabetic complications and the definition of hypoglycaemia

Identify the benefits and drawbacks of assessing glycaemic control in patients with diabetes using the measurement HbA1c and time in range


This module includes self-marked assessments, such as knowledge checks and/or case studies, as well as a marked final assessment, which you can attempt up to five times. To complete the module, you must review all chapters, pass the final assessment (80% pass mark), and fill in our feedback form.
