The Management of Glucose Control and Hypoglycemic Prevention Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring System in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

Not Applicable
Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes
Interventions
Device: Self-monitoring of blood glucose (conventional fingerpricking method)
Device: Continuous glucose monitoring system(CGMS)
Registration Number
NCT04684030
Lead Sponsor
Yonsei University
Brief Summary

This study was designed to evaluate the glucose control and hypoglycemic prevention effect of using continuous glucose monitoring system(CGMS) in patients with type 1 diabetes. This is a prospective randomized controlled, single-center clinical study. Patients will randomized 1:1 to either CGMS or conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) group. After 12 weeks of applying the CGMS sensors, the improvement of parameters collected from the CGMS will be estimated in comparison with data collected from the SMBG.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The change of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level12 weeks after applying continuous glucose monitoring system

The HbA1c levels in this study will analyzed twice during the study, once at the baseline and after the CGMS testing was initiated. The improvement of HbA1c level in CGMS group will be estimated and compare it with the change in HbA1c level in the SMBG group.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The number of participants with improved clinical glycometabolic parameters12 weeks after applying continuous glucose monitoring system

Clinical glycometabolic parameters (HbA1c, glycated albumin, glycemic variability, hypoglycemia, calculated insulin dose, patient's self confidence in diabetes self-care, Quality of life) and anthropometric parameters (Blood pressure, Body weight, BMI etc)
