RT-CGM in Young Adults at Risk of DKA
Sponsor: Imperial College London
Summary
Pilot study to evaluate the effect of real time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) on young-adults with insulin-treated diabetes, who are defined as high risk due to suboptimal HbA1c (blood glucose control) or a history of hospital admissions for high blood glucoses. Hypothesis: RT-CGM provided to young adults with suboptimal blood glucose control, has a beneficial impact on HbA1c and hospital admissions for high blood glucoses. We will use data from this pilot work to inform a larger powered study to address this knowledge gap.
