NCT06591286 | RECRUITING | Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Effects of Real-time Continuous Glucose Monitoring System on Hospital-to-home Transitional Blood Glucose Control
Sponsor:

Shanghai 6th People's Hospital

Brief Summary:

Glucose monitoring is an important part of self-management for patients with diabetes. The results of glucose monitoring not only help to assess the degree of glucose metabolism disorders in patients, but also help physicians to make clinical decisions and guide patients in self-management. Despite extensive efforts and advances in diabetes management during hospitalization, glucose control after patients is discharged home remains a challenge. This trial aims to explore the effect of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) system compared to self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) group on glucose and self-efficacy of type 2 diabetes patients treated with insulin after discharge from the hospital.

Condition or disease

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Intervention/treatment

RT-CGM

SMBG

Phase

NA

Detailed Description:

Glycemic management of patients with diabetes after discharge home is extremely challenging, especially for those requiring insulin therapy. The use of a real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) system may improve glycemic control and self-efficacy in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin after discharge from the hospital. One hundred and fifty insulin-treated adults with type 2 diabetes were randomly assigned to receive either RT-CGM or self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) at hospital discharge for a 12-week monitoring intervention and a 36-week follow-up.
