A Study Comparing Dexcom Continuous Glucose Monitoring to Point of Care Glucose Testing for the Management of Hospital and Post-Discharge Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes
Sponsor: Emory University
Summary
This study aims to compare inpatient glycemic control by measuring the percentage of time in the range of 70-180 mg/dl and the frequency of hypoglycemia between Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) and Point of Care (POC) Blood Glucose Testing in poorly controlled subjects with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. The main question it aims to answer is: -Whether there is a difference between POC testing (standard of care) and Real-time CGM in glycemic control and hypoglycemic events during hospitalization:

Interventions
Dexcom G7 rtCGM
The Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (Dexcom G7 CGM System or G7) is a glucose monitoring system that continuously measures glucose in the interstitial fluid. It aids in the detection of episodes of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, facilitating both acute and long-term therapy adjustments
Capillary Blood glucose Testing (POC)
POC glucose meters measure whole blood and convert the results to plasma glucose concentrations, which is the standardized form used in clinical practice.
