Trial summary

IV nutrition is a means of providing all the nutritional requirements of people who have severe bowel disease. At least 10% of people on longer term IV nutrition also have diabetes and IV nutrition includes delivering glucose directly to large veins. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: What Happens to Frequently Measured Glucose Measures in Patients, Both With and Without Diabetes, Who Are Receiving Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN).

IV nutrition is a means of providing all the nutritional requirements of people who have severe bowel disease. At least 10% of people on longer term IV nutrition also have diabetes and IV nutrition includes delivering glucose directly to large veins. Unsurprisingly this causes elevated blood glucose levels, particularly in people with diabetes. This can make treatment of hyperglycaemia more challenging. As a result this study aims to use a flash glucose monitoring device, the FreeStyle Libre pro, to investigate what happens to glucose levels in patients receiving IV nutrition. We will look at this trend in 5 patients with diabetes and 5 patients without diabetes receiving IV nutrition.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FreeStyle Libre Pro in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by The Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 May 2019. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Michael W Mansfield, BM BCh, BA (hons) (01132066963, michael.mansfield@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hyperglycaemia (time frame: 14 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 28 May 2019.
