About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study on the Accuracy, Ease of Use and Skin Reactions Between the Enlite Sensor With Guardian 2 Link Transmitter and the FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Sensor

  1. The accuracy of the sensors (Flash vs Enlite glucose monitoring) will be evaluated with a standardized breakfast test. Patients receive a standardized breakfast. The usual insulin bolus will be administered at breakfast. After breakfast, a venous blood sample is taken for 2 hours every 15 minutes to determine the blood sugar. At the same time, the glucose value shown by the sensors will be noted. A comparison of the blood glucose value with the data recorded by the sensor can evaluate the accuracy of the sensor and also estimate the lag-time between the sensor glucose and the venous glucose.
  2. Patient satisfaction will be evaluated using a questionnaire that will be completed after the Enlite sensor has been worn for 1 month.
  3. The development of skin reactions will be checked by a short questionnaire, supplemented with a picture of possible skin phenomena.
  4. The data recorded by the FreeStyle sensor (average glucose,% above target,% within target,% under target, amount of hypoglycemia) in the month prior to sensor switching will be compared to the same data recorded by the Enlite sensor during the first month of use.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Accuracy of Enlite sensor

    The accuracy of the sensors (flash vs enlite glucose monitoring) will be evaluated with a standardized breakfast test. Patients receive a standardized breakfast. The usual insulin bolus will be administered at breakfast. After breakfast, a venous blood sample is taken for 2 hours every 15 minutes to determine the blood sugar. At the same time, the glucose value shown by the sensors will be noted. A comparison of the blood glucose value with the data recorded by the sensor can evaluate the accuracy of the sensor and also estimate the lag-time between the sensor glucose and the venous glucose.

    Measured: 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Usability of Enlite sensor

    Patient satisfaction will be evaluated using a questionnaire that will be completed after the Enlite sensor has been worn for 1 month.

    Measured: 1 month

  2. skin reactions wih Enlite sensor

    The development of skin reactions will be checked by a short questionnaire, supplemented with a picture of possible skin phenomena.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Jessa Hospital at 1 site in Belgium.

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 1 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 11 Jul 2018. 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 Belgium. 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?

Accuracy of Enlite sensor (time frame: 2 hours). 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 11 Jul 2018.
