About this study

Official title: An Open, Single-centre, Controlled Trial to Investigate the Efficacy and Usability of Published Best Practice to Control Glycaemia in Hospitalised Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of enhanced published best practice paper-based insulin titration protocol for glycaemic control in hospitalised patients with type 2 diabetes for the length of hospital stay.

Being tested
Insulin Aspart, Insulin Glargine
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Insulin Aspart, Insulin GlargineDrug

    The Intervention is a paper based protocol, which provides suggestions for new insulin doses (basal-bolus regime).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Insulin Aspart, Insulin Glargine in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Medical University of Graz at 1 site in Austria.

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 3 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 5 Feb 2013. 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 Austria. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Mean blood glucose (time frame: duration of hospital stay (48 hours - maximum three weeks)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01407289, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 5 Feb 2013.
