FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: method involves measuring the blood glucose level (mmole/l) with the blood glucose level (mmole/l) measured at least 288 times for 24 hours. The derived data are used to calculate an average blood glucose value and a standard mean deviation from the average blood glucose value. The derived glucose values are analysed with taking into consideration glucose level variations amplitude of which exceeds the standard deviation, and an arithmetic mean value of the variations taken into consideration. If the arithmetic mean value of the variations taken into consideration is more than 5 mmole/l, life-threatening arrhythmias are predicted.
EFFECT: provided high prediction accuracy of life-threatening arrhythmias in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus suffering chronic cardiac failure.
