Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this randomised controlled trial to investigate the effect of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) compared to standard point-of-care (POC) blood glucose measurements in surgical patients with diabetes in patients. The main question it aims to answer is: • Can the use of the CGM device Dexcom G7 with real-time alerts on dysglycaemia increase the time in range for glucose levels as compared with standard monitoring with point-of-care blood glucose in surgical patients with diabetes? Participants will be asked to wear a CGM device (Dexcom G7, Dexcom Inc.) during their stay in the hospital. For patients in the intervention group, deviations of glucose levels will provide the nursing staff with alerts. All patients will receive standard care of their diabetes. The CGM device will be worn for up to 10 days or until discharge.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a prospective randomised controlled multicentre trial on patients living with diabetes who undergo surgery at Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen University, Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg Hospital, Copenhagen University, and Zealand University Hospital, Køge, Denmark The study aims to investigate the effect of the CGM-device Dexcom G7 CGM in patients with diabetes undergoing surgery on the diabetic control. The Dexcom G7 provides glucose readings every 5 minutes and can send alerts on dysglycaemia (hypo- and hyperglycaemia) to mobile devices held by the nursing staff. Patients will wear the CGM before, during and up to 10 days postoperatively. The study will include 200 patients. This study is part of an overall project that aims to investigate the use of CGM and continuous wireless monitoring of vital signs in patients with diabetes undergoing major surgery. Using this technology, postoperative complications including dysglycaemia can potentially be detected and treated earlier thus improving the perioperative care. ;
