Increasing Use of Continuous Glucose Monitors in Publicly-insured Youth With Type 1 Diabetes

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Type1diabetes
Interventions
Behavioral: Use of Dexcom G5
Behavioral: gamification
Registration Number
NCT03297762
Lead Sponsor
Stanford University
Brief Summary

To use an enhanced continuous glucose monitor (CGM) experience, including an automated CGM-electronic health record (EHR) data integration system, proactive interventions, and gamification techniques, to increase CGM use among publicly-insured youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Detailed Description

The investigators will use an automated data integration system to monitor hours per week the CGM is worn and target interventions/troubleshooting techniques as needed. The investigators will use gamification techniques (i.e. ability to gain points and achieve small rewards) to help encourage CGM use and potentially improve glycemic control in this at-risk population.
