Effect of 2-Week Continuous Glucose Monitoring on Glycemic Management in Patients New-to-Insulin on Hospital Discharge
United States150 participantsStarted 2024-12-16
Plain-language summary
The proposed study will be a randomized, prospective, non-blinded study of 120 participants with type 1 or type 2 diabetes that are new-to-insulin on hospital discharge. On hospital discharge, participants will be assigned to either the intervention of wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) for 2 weeks or blood glucose monitoring (BGM) for 2 weeks. They will have a 2-week follow up visit, during which insulin doses will be adjusted as needed, and a 3-month follow-up visit, at which point HbA1c will be measured.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
. Active pregnancy; as pregnancy requires different blood glucose targets, subjects known to be pregnant will be excluded from this study. Subjects will not be tested for pregnancy outside of testing performed in routine medical care; pregnancy will be determined by patient self-reporting. Females of childbearing potential will not be instructed to avoid pregnancy, however if they became pregnant during the study (detected by self-reporting), they will be withdrawn from the study.
