About this study

Official title: A Randomized Study Comparing Usual Diabetes Care Management to Telemetric Home-based Monitoring of Glucose and Blood Pressure in Patients With Diabetes (TELEGAP)

The study is a two-arm, parallel-comparison, single-blind, randomized controlled trial, and will be offered to Kaiser Permanente members aged 18 - 75 years old who present to the Santa Rosa Diabetes Care Management Center with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms. The telemedicine group or the group receiving usual care (the control group).

This study hopes to show the usefulness of this telemonitoring technology and more specifically, to assess whether this device improves markers of control of diabetes, glycemic control, and cardiovascular risk factors

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. blood pressure

    goal of systolic < 130 mmHg and diastolic < 70 mmHg

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Telemonitoring Device in people with Diabetes, run by Kaiser Permanente.

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 4 inclusion and 8 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 25 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Fructosamine (time frame: 6 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Jan 2013.
