Clinical Trial Summary
Introduction and objective: The current state of glucose monitoring includes the use of A1C,
self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG), and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). CGM
technology has got the potential to revolutionize diabetes care in the near future striving
to optimal diabetes management and tight glucose control. Until very recently, this
determination could only be achieved by the attainment of multiple capillary blood glucose
determinations each day and/or measuring hemoglobin A1C. Those methods are not accurate in
cases of unrecognized hypoglycemia, unrecognized nighttime events or in cases of large swings
in blood glucose. Our aim is to analyze the benefit of tracking patterns of glucose values by
using professional CGM technology used for "blinded" collection of glucose data
retrospectively in patients with T2DM in secondary care- diabetologist clinic.
Description:
STUDY DESIGN: An observational, multicenter, cross-sectional study. A total of 20
diabetologist from four Croatian regions will recruit up to ten subjects of both sexes from
May 2018 till the end of May 2019, diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus at least one year
prior to study entry, aged ≥40 years, with only basal insulin in therapy and with clinical
suspicion of hypoglycemia or with disproportion in actual glycaemia and hemoglobin A1c
findings. Sociodemographic, laboratory (HbA1c, fasting and postprandial glucose, total
cholesterol, and high density cholesterol, and low density cholesterol, triglyceride and
serum creatinine) and habits data will be collected.
SETTING: Totally 100 of patients will be included. At diabetologist office each patient wear
the device (iPro™2 Medtronic) subcutaneously for up to 7-days and return it to the office for
download. Patients only see the CGM data after it's been analyzed by the healthcare
professional. A CGM device is to be set and take off by the diabetologist. Before the study
start all diabetologist who are not familiar to the method will have a short education. Study
period is seven days and includes screening before study entry and two visits. On Day 1,
after screening and signing the informed consent, the CGM device is applied. Patient is
instructed to keep a 7 day diary with four daily standard SMBG along with the data on eating,
physical exercise, drugs. On Day 7, CGM device is taken off and the data from iPro2 is
uploaded to PC. At the end, each patient fills a short query on satisfaction while wearing
CGM.
