About this study

Official title: Empowering Medicare Patients to Self-Manage Their Type 2 Diabetes Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) - Investigational Device Pilot (SMA Investigational Device)

This study allows Type 2 diabetics to receive feedback from a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) as part of an educational program designed to help them better manage their glucose levels. Subjects will also wear an activity tracker to monitor their activity and observe its effect on their glucose levels. The educational program will involve calls from coaches to check subjects' progress and answer questions.

Conditions
Type2 Diabetes
Being tested
Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM), Activity Tracker, Coaching

What participants receive

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

  • Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM)Device

    Also called Dexcom Investigational Use Only (IUO) Device

    Subjects will use a CGM to develop an understanding of how their behaviors influence their glucose levels.

  • Activity TrackerDevice

    Also called Fitbit Charge 2

    Subjects will use the activity tracker, in combination with a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), to develop an understanding of how their activity levels affect their glucose levels.

  • CoachingBehavioural

    Coaches will help subjects understand the readings from the CGMs and how they are affected by diet choices, use of diabetes medications, etc. Coaches and subjects will have weekly conversations about CGM data and behaviors that affect CGM readings. Coaching will occur via telephone, text messaging, and automated text messaging.

What is being measured

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

  1. Program Enrollment Rate (%)

    (Number of patients who were shipped devices) / (Number of patients invited to enroll) * 100

    Measured: up to 9 months

  2. Program Completion Rate (%)

    (Number of patients who complete 10 weeks of CGM) / (Number of patients who received devices) * 100

    Measured: up to 9 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Weekly Average of Estimated Glucose Values (EGV)

    (Sum of EGV for a given week) / (Total number of EGV for a given week)

    Measured: up to 10 weeks

  2. Change in Medication Dosage (mg/Day; U/Day)

    (dosage of Rx on Day 180) - (dosage of Rx on Day 0)

    Measured: up to 9 months

  3. Average Age of Participants Who Start Trial (Yrs)

    (Sum of ages of all enrollees) / (Total number of enrollees)

    Measured: up to 9 months

  4. Average Age of Participants Who Complete Trial (Yrs)

    (Sum of age of patients who complete) / (Total number who complete)

    Measured: up to 9 months

  5. Texting With Coaches

    (Sum of all text messages) / (Total number of participants*days)

    Measured: up to 9 months

  6. Coaching Participation Rate

    (Sum of weekly coaching calls completed) / (Total number of participants*weeks)

    Measured: up to 9 months
