Effect of Continuous Glucose Monitoring System on Glycemic Control in Non-insulin-Treated Elderly People With Type 2 Diabetes

Effect of contINuous Glucose moniToring System on glycEmic controL in Non-insuLin-Treated Elderly People With Type 2 Diabetes: a Randomized Controlled Trial


Sponsor

Shanghai 6th People's Hospital

Enrollment

148 participants

Start Date

Jul 14, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if continuous glucose monitoring system works to improve glucose control in non-insulin-treated older adults with type 2 diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Dose the use of continuous glucose monitoring system improve glucose control in older adults with type 2 diabetes treated with oral antidiabetic drugs only? * Dose the use of continuous glucose monitoring system affect psychological outcomes in older adults with type 2 diabetes treated with oral antidiabetic drugs only? Researchers will compare continuous glucose monitoring to standard blood glucose monitoring to see if continuous glucose monitoring works better in glucose management. Participants will: * Wear continuous glucose monitoring every 2 months or standard blood glucose monitoring for 6 months * Visit the clinic once every 2 months for follow-up * Keep a diary of their blood glucose when continuous glucose monitoring was not used


Eligibility

Min Age: 60 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing whether continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) — a small sensor worn on the skin that tracks blood sugar throughout the day — can help older adults with type 2 diabetes achieve better blood sugar control compared to standard care. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 60 years or older - You have type 2 diabetes - You are taking two or more oral diabetes medications on a stable regimen for the past 3 months - Your HbA1c (a measure of blood sugar control over time) is between 7.5% and 10% - You own a smartphone compatible with the CGM device **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are currently using insulin or a GLP-1 receptor agonist (e.g., semaglutide or liraglutide) - You have used a CGM device in the past 3 months - You have a skin condition or adhesive allergy that would prevent sensor use - You have dementia, severe psychiatric illness, or significant sensory impairment - You have planned surgery or procedures within the next 6 months that could interfere with the study Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
