Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes
Completed
- Conditions
- Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
- Registration Number
- NCT01341067
- Lead Sponsor
- Rocky Mountain Diabetes and Osteoporosis Center
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect CGM (continuous glucose monitoring) has on subjects with type 2 diabetes. It is anticipated that patients using the device will obtain tighter control of their blood sugars resulting in measureable health benefits and improved confidence in their ability to manage their diabetes.
