研究概览
简要总结
There are multiple CGMs that are FDA approved. However, there are few studies looking at the variability of measurements between the left and right arm, and none looking at this effect in diabetic patients. This study may identify if glucose differences exist in the left and right arm in patients with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes. Furthermore, it may point to future directions for research to standardize methods of glucose measurement such as consistently measuring on only one side of the body.
详细描述
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the time-matched difference in glucose levels between the left arm and right arm in patients with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. The main objective aims to answer:
• Is there a difference in time-matched controlled glucose monitoring (CGM) - derived blood glucose between left and right arm in patients with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes in target range (<70 mg/dL; 70-180 mg/dL; >180 mg/dL)?
Participants will wear two Freestyle Libre 3 sensors, 1 on the left and 1 on the right arm, continuously for 2 weeks. Participants will need to download the Freestyle Libre 3 app on two separate mobile devices and connect the sensors with Freestyle Libre View accounts provided by the study team. The study team will collect and compare the data between the left and right arm for further analysis.

结局指标
主要结局
Time-matched CGM-derived blood glucose differences between left arm and right arm in patients with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes below target range (<70 mg/dL).
时间窗: 14 days
Data gathered from the CGM device will be sync'd with the Freestyle View app and made available to the study team for analysis below the target range (\<70 mg/dL).
次要结局
- Time-matched CGM-derived blood glucose differences between left arm and right arm in patients in target range (70-180 mg/dL).(14 days)
- Time-matched CGM-derived blood glucose differences between left arm and right arm in patients above target range (>180 mg/dL).(14 days)
