Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Males and females, 18 years of age and older
  • Type 1 or type 2 diabetes
  • Able to speak, read, and understand English
  • Willing to complete all study procedures

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy
  • Hemophilia or any other bleeding disorder
  • Previously participated in a study using the CONTOUR PLUS system
  • Working for a medical laboratory, hospital or other clinical setting that involves training on and clinical use of blood glucose monitors.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Intended Users of the Monitoring System
Untrained subjects with diabetes use CONTOUR® PLUS Investigational BG Monitoring System.
Device: CONTOUR® PLUS Investigational BG Monitoring System
Untrained subjects with diabetes perform self Blood Glucose (BG) tests with capillary fingerstick and palm blood using the CONTOUR® PLUS Investigational BG Monitoring System. Study staff test subject venous blood. All Blood Glucose (BG) results are compared to a reference laboratory glucose method.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percent of Self-Test Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL) or Within +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method
Time Frame: 1 hour
Untrained subjects with diabetes self-test fingerstick blood using an investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. BG results are used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) of the reference method results.
1 hour

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percent of Glucose Results From Alternative Site Testing (AST) of the Palm Within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL) or Within +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method
Time Frame: 1 hour
Untrained subjects with diabetes self-test Alternative Site (AST) Palm blood using an investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS AST results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. BG results are used to calculate the number of AST BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) of the reference method results.
1 hour
Percent of Venous Blood Glucose Results Within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL) or Within +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method
Time Frame: 1 hour
Study staff tested subject venous blood using an investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). Venous BGMS results are compared with venous plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. Venous plasma BG results are used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL YSI venous plasma) or +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL YSI venous plasma) of the reference method results.
1 hour
Percent of Self-Test Fingerstick Blood Glucose Results Within +/- 5to15mg/dL (<100mg/dL) or Within +/- 5to15% (>=100mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method
Time Frame: 1 hour
Untrained subjects with diabetes self-test fingerstick blood using an investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. BG results are used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 5to15mg/dL (<100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 5to15% (>=100mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) of the reference method results.
1 hour
Percent of Subject Fingerstick BG Results Within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL) or Within +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL) of Laboratory Glucose Method When Tested by Study Staff
Time Frame: 1 hour
Study staff test subject fingerstick blood using an investigational Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS). BGMS results are compared with capillary plasma BG results obtained with a Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. BG results are used to calculate the number of BGMS results within +/- 15mg/dL (<75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) or +/- 20% (>=75mg/dL YSI capillary plasma) of the reference method results.
1 hour
Number of Subject Responses 'Strongly Agree' 'Agree' or 'Neutral' With Questionnaire Statements
Time Frame: 1 hour
Subjects respond to statements read by study staff to provide feedback on the labeling materials and system ease of use. Subjects may respond 'Strongly Agree' 'Agree' 'Neutral' 'Disagree' or 'Strongly Disagree'.
