Filter by:Older adults with type 2 diabetes are at higher risk for severe hypoglycemia and its related complications (including hospitalization and death) when taking insulin. This study proposes to evaluate, in a randomized clinical trial, a strategy of safe insulin prescribing based on an educational program that leverages continuous glucose monitoring to support older adults at high risk for hypoglycemia. If the aims of this project are achieved, this novel care strategy could be widely applied to reduce severe hypoglycemia episodes in older, high-risk adults with type 2 diabetes.
Sleep disturbance is one of the most common complaints of patients admitted to ICU. Insufficient sleep in intensive care units may be associated with environmental reasons such as excessive light at night, loud warning sounds and mechanical ventilation alarms, as well as non-environmental factors, including the situation at the time of admission. Sleep assessment is subjective in nature, so it is difficult to perform in the ICU. Since communication with the patient is prevented, clear information about perceived rest and disturbing factors cannot be provided. For this reason, night rest is an issue that is often forgotten and ignored. This study applied a mixture of lavender, medicinal chamomile and neroli oil (in 20 ml of sweet almond oil; lavender oil 2 drops, medicinal chamomile 4 drops, neroli oil 6 drops) to patients who were monitored in intensive care on high-flow and oxygen, once a day for three days. This study will be conducted to determine the effect of aromatherapy massage applied for a total of 30 minutes on sleep quality.
Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) experience physical and psychological discomfort, including pain. Anxiety is a condition frequently encountered in the ICU. The hospital environment, especially the ICU, is reported as a significant cause of anxiety for patients. Comfort is a holistic, subjective and multidimensional concept that is affected by physical, environmental, social and psycho-spiritual contexts and changes over time and space. Comfort in intensive care is often associated with pain relief and end-of-life care. Assessment tools have been developed to measure patient comfort in the ICU, including levels of pain, delirium, and sedation. This work; Patients who are monitored in intensive care under high-flow and oxygen are treated with a mixture of lavender, thyme and eucalyptus oil (20 ml; lavender oil 5 drops, thyme oil 4 drops, eucalyptus oil 3 drops and 20 ml almond oil) twice a day for three days. This study was conducted to determine the effect of aromatherapy massage applied for a total of 30 minutes on some physiological parameters, pain, anxiety and intensive care comfort of the patients.
Perioperative management of glucose levels remains challenging. The purpose of the study is to compare the hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system with the standard insulin therapy ( insulin pump with CGM, insulin dose controlled by physicians) in controlling glucose levels among patients in the perioperative period.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of non-invasive invasive vagal nerve stimulation on diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain in people with diabetes.
Consequences of the compromised vascular system in diabetes mellitus (DM) are among the most devastating complications. Reduction in blood flow and oxygen uptake of skeletal muscle leads to muscle fatigue and impaired skeletal muscle post-exercise adaptation. Recent studies showed that intermittent vacuum therapy (IVT) augments the blood flow of the foot in people with DM. This pilot study investigates the effects of combined IVT and aerobic exercise in improving lower limb muscle oxygenation and distal circulation in individuals with DM. Positive results of the study shed light on strategy that enhances the effectiveness of aerobic exercise in people with DM.
The goal of this trial is to compare different means of glucose monitoring in women with gestational diabetes and a history of gastric bypass surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: How does continous glucose monitoring impact the treatment and affect pregnancy outcome in these women. Participants will be randomized to either continous glucose monitoring or regular capillary glucose measurements during the last trimester of their pregnancy. Researchers will compare the glucose measurement outcomes, the glucose lowering treatment given and pregnancy outcomes between groups.
Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the gingivitis, periodontal profile and malocclusion in children and adolescents with diabetes. Methods: The sample consisted of 36 children, who were distributed into two groups: DM; n=18 and NDM; n=18. Periodontal parameters considered were plaque Index (PI), gingival Index (GI), probing depth of pocket (PPD), gingival recession (GR) and clinical attachment level (CAL). Gingival biotype clinical parameters: Gingival transparency to probing, Height of keratinized mucosa and Gingival thickness on permanent incisors and molars. Malocclusion were evaluated by the Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI) and the Angle's Classification. The statistical analyses were Shapiro Wilk test and T test.
This is a multicenter prospective collection of data with diagnostic procedures different from standard clinical care in a specific cohort of patients, aimed to evaluate cardiovascular risk stratification with the European Society of Cardiology (ESC)/European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) guidelines and "The Steno Type 1 Risk Engine" algorithm. The correlation between CVD risk, atherosclerosis, and microvascular complications of diabetes (retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy) will then be evaluated, and the impact of glycemic variability and other glucose metrics on vascular damage will be characterized. The investigators plan to enroll at least 200 consecutive type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients who meet all the inclusion criteria and none of exclusion criteria.
The study will investigate the safety of once weekly insulin icodec subcutaenously (s.c.) during and after exercise and prolonged fasting in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Participants will first receive insulin decludec (Tresiba®, a long-acting insulin taken once daily) for atleast one week. Afterwards participants will receive insulin icodec that will be administered once weekly at the study site (for a minimum of 7 weeks and maximum of 14 weeks). Insulin icodec is a novel long-acting insulin analogue for once-weekly administration for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The study will last for about 16-30 weeks. Participant must not participate if participant have suspected hypersensitivity reactions to the study products or cardiovascular diseases within the last 180 days. Female participant cannot take part if she is pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study period.
