Filter by:The Total duration of trial participation for each participant with post-bariatric hypoglycemia will be a maximum of 59 weeks, with the following duration of trial periods - 19 weeks for the Core Phase. It is composed of: - a Screening period: a maximum of 3 weeks - a Run-in period (no treatment): 4 weeks - a Blinded Treatment Phase: 12 weeks - 36 weeks Extension Phase = an open-label Treatment period - 4 weeks for the safety follow-up period (without any treatment).
A mobile health program "HypoPals", which incorporates data from continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGMs) and sends personalized text messages to help people sharpen their low blood sugar symptom detection skills, and help people consider how they think of low blood sugar, was devised. The goal of the current study is to make sure that HypoPals runs smoothly, users find the intervention useful, and the way the researchers conduct the final study will be correct (i.e., there is a need for 'pilot testing' the developed technology and research methods). All participants will receive basic hypoglycemia education text messages, and then be randomized to one of the four experimental conditions: Hypoglycemia Symptom Detection Training, Education Plus, both Symptom Detection Training and Education Plus, and usual care. Participants may receive additional interventional text messages based on the experimental condition participants are assigned to. The study may terminate after collecting sufficient data to evaluate the primary outcome (i.e., determining the number of participants recruited to reach 20 participants who complete the intervention).
The purpose of this study is to learn more about changes in glucose levels in hospitalized infants with intestinal failure receiving parenteral nutrition or PN (nutrients delivered intravenously), as they transition from continuous PN (given 24 hours a day) to cycled PN (given less than 24 hours a day). There is an increased risk of glucose abnormalities with cycled PN, which can be harmful to infant growth and brain health. Continuous glucose monitors (CGM) will be used to measure interstitial glucose levels (in the tissue under the skin), which are similar to blood glucose levels. CGM is a small, minimally-invasive sensor worn on the thigh, which gives a glucose measurement every 5 minutes, and can help us understand changes in blood sugar levels without having to do a blood draw or fingerstick. CGM will be used during PN cycling for up to 30 days or until hospital discharge. If target GIR cycled PN is not reached following 3 sensor periods (up to 10 days per sensor), the parent/guardian will be approached to accept or decline participation in an optional extension phase. In the extension phase, the primary study will be repeated and CGM monitoring will continue until target GIR cycled PN is reached, up to an additional 3 sensor placements. CGM data will be hidden from the clinical team, there will be no change to routine clinical care. This study may help us understand how cycled PN affects glucose levels in infants with intestinal failure, which may help other children treated with cycled PN in the future.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the benefits of using aa Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system in patients with diabetes following discharge from the hospital. The main question it aims to answer is: • If the use of CGM with alarms is safe and effective for managing low and/or high blood sugars when compared with performing finger sticks several times per day Participants will wear one or two FreeStyle Libre CGM sensors for 12-14 days three times over a 12-week (3 month) period. This means that they will have the one to two sensors inserted under their skin. They will be asked to come to the study site four times and complete two phone calls with research staff over the 12-week period. Researchers will compare the LibreView CGM group to the Standard of Care group to see if the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) reduces risk of low blood sugar in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) after hospital discharge when compared with the current standard method.
The investigators propose to conduct a study of practices to describe the methods of managing glycemic control in hospitalized patients in critical care. This is a prospective multicenter observational study conducted in Intensive Medicine and Resuscitation departments in France and Belgium. The aim of this study is to carry out an inventory of the current practices of glycemia management as well as their modalities. Being one of the key points of the management, this work will have for main objective to raise the importance of the glycemic variabilities according to the methods of insulin therapies used.
The association of insulin degludec with liraglutide in the same device (IDegLira) is a potent but at the same time safe drug that reduces the risk of hypoglycemia when compared to a basal or basal-bolus insulin schedule. The DUAL (Dual Action of Liraglutide and Insulin Degludec) studies are the pivotal studies of this combination. Specifically, the DUAL VII study has demonstrated that ideglira is a non-inferior drug in terms of glycemic control versus a basal-bolus schedule in patients in the outpatient setting who have failed basal insulin. Although the basal-bolus insulin plus correction schedule is frequently used in hospitalized patients with hyperglycemia, outpatient management with a complex insulin schedule creates challenges that are difficult to mitigate due to limited time for patient education during an acute illness and limited access to the physician responsible for post-discharge diabetes management. The use of IDegLira has not been evaluated in clinical studies in the hospital discharge setting where the authors believe it has great potential because it offers similar potency to the basal-bolus scheme but with greater safety with respect to hypoglycemia and less complexity for the patient because it is associated with fewer applications and less need for capillary self-monitoring. For this reason, in the hospital-home transition scenario, ideglira therapy in patients with poor metabolic control and requiring intensification therapy is proposed as an alternative to the basal-bolus scheme.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of the study drug (ZT-01) on low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who have been having low blood sugars ("hypos") at night. ZT-01 increases the amount of a hormone called glucagon during low blood sugar, and this may help prevent the occurrence of hypos. The main questions this trial aims to answer are whether ZT-01 lowers the number of hypos happening at night, and what its effects are on blood sugar levels. The safety of ZT-01 will also be measured. Participants will be asked to wear a study-provided continuous glucose monitor (CGM) during two 4-week periods when they will self-inject the study drug before bed. They will get ZT-01 at one of three dose levels during one period, and placebo (which looks like the study drug but doesn't contain the active ingredient) during the other. Neither the participant nor the study site will know what they are receiving during each treatment period or see data from the CGM. The participant will continue to use their usual methods of measuring blood sugar (including their personal CGM) and giving insulin during the study. The participant will be asked to complete a short diary each evening, and will be asked to upload the CGM data to a study phone every day. If a participant uses their own CGM and is willing to share information on how often they have low blood sugar with the study site at the first visit to see if they meet study entry requirements, they will have 6 study visits, 2 study phone calls, and be in the study for about 16 weeks. If they don't use CGM or don't want to share their information, then they will be asked to wear a study CGM for an extra 4 weeks to find out how many low blood sugars they have, and will have an extra visit. Study participants will be asked to give blood and urine for testing to see whether they meet the requirements to enter the study, and at the start and end of each treatment period to see if the study treatment has any effects. They will also have their blood pressure and temperature taken at each study visit, and have an ECG at 4 visits to measure the electrical activity of their heart. Some participants will be asked to also take part in a sub-study where their blood level of ZT-01 and glucagon is measured, after the first and last dose. They will be asked to stay at the study site overnight for each set of measurements (4 in total).
To study the glycemic patterns of patients undergoing bariatric surgery and what are the risk factors capable of predicting episodes of unnoticed hypoglycemia and high glycemic variability, evaluating patients who underwent reduction gastroplasty with Roux-en-Y reconstruction (GRYR) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG)
To prospectively determine the burden of hypoglycemia (minutes spent below 70 mg/dl per day, measured by continuous glucose monitor (CGM)) among residents of long term care facilities (LTC) with a diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 diabetes including key clinical subgroups (living in skilled nursing facility (SNF) or nursing home (NH), on different hypoglycemic medications). This aim will be achieved by recruiting 300 residents with diabetes in 4 LTC facilities. All participants will undergo masked CGM for 10 days.
The purpose of this study is to confirm hypothesis that Glibenclamide can be administered orally and is an alternative to insulin therapy in treating transient hyperglycemia of premature newborns.
