About this study

Evaluate the usefulness of continuous glucose monitoring devices in terms of their ability to identify periods throughout the day when glucose varies significantly.

Read the detailed description

Many CGM systems use a surrogate for blood glucose--tissue glucose or interstitial glucose. Interstitial fluid (ISF) is the medium for these approaches. A physiological lag in ISF glucose relative to capillary blood glucose has been noted, probably due to relatively low blood perfusion at the sampling site. 9 This physiological lag can result in an accuracy error, manifesting as a significant bias between blood and tissue glucose, particularly during periods of rapid glucose change. This lag error might be particularly meaningful when glucose is rapidly dropping towards hypoglycemia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Nov 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To collect sufficient glucose data by means of continuous glucose monitoring for the purpose of detecting clinically relevant alterations in blood glucose throughout a typical or modal day. (time frame: 9 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Nov 2015.
