Trial to Assess Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Asian Americans With Type 2 Diabetes
A Pilot Clinical Trial to Assess Feasibility, Facilitators and Barriers of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Asian Americans With Type 2 Diabetes
Joslin Diabetes Center
30 participants
Sep 22, 2022
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This study aims to understand the use of continuous glucose monitors (CGM) in Asian Americans with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Researchers will compare participants on continuous glucose monitors with participants using fingerstick self-monitoring with the aim of answering the following questions: 1. Check if continuous glucose monitoring is doable and consistent for this group, and see how it affects their quality of life. 2. Estimate how well the health outcomes (glucose and lipid markers) vary over the study period. 3. Understand how social and community factors can impact the use of continuous glucose monitors in this group.

Interventions
The Clinical Diabetes Educator (CDE) will follow up with the participants at Month 1 after the baseline study visit, at the study midpoint (Month 3), and at the end of the study (Month 6) to check CGM usage, including timely calibration and change adherence. At the end of the study, participants will be invited to complete a survey and participate in virtual interviews to assess changes in their health behaviors and the acceptability of CGM devices.
Participants will adhere to the standard care protocol and continue self-monitoring of blood glucose through fingersticks as per usual practice\[46\]. The Clinical Diabetes Educator (CDE) will monitor and provide follow-up to the control group participants as per the same schedule followed for the intervention group.
