Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes
  • Age 4 to 24 years
  • Routinely performs blood glucose testing at home
  • If age 18 or older at time informed consent is signed, subject must be able to speak, read, and understand English.
  • If younger than age 18, subject's parent/guardian must be able to speak, read, and understand English, and is able to provide appropriate supervision.
  • Is willing to complete all study procedures, with or without parent / guardian supervision, if appropriate

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Currently pregnant
  • Hemophilia or any other bleeding disorder
  • Taking prescription anticoagulants (such as Warfarin or heparin) or has clotting problems that may prolong bleeding. Taking Plavix or aspirin daily is not excluded
  • Infection with a blood borne pathogen (e.g., HIV, hepatitis)
  • Subject or parent/guardian is employee of competitive medical device company
  • Cognitive disorder or other condition, which in the opinion of the investigator, would put the person at risk or seriously compromise the integrity of the study

  • Allocation: NA
  • Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
OTHER: Subjects with diabetes
Subjects with diabetes (or parents/guardians, if applicable)and healthcare professionals (HCPs) use a new blood glucose monitoring system. Subjects were 4 to 24 years of age with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Subjects with diabetes (with parent/guardian assistance, if applicable)and health care professionals (HCPs) each performed duplicate Blood Glucose (BG) tests from the subject's capillary blood on the DIDGET. To test the full range of glucose concentrations, a venipuncture was performed on some subjects to obtain enough blood for modifying (spiking or glycolyzing) to the extreme glucose concentrations. Results were compared to a laboratory glucose method - the Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percent of Blood Glucose (BG) Results Within +/-15mg/dL or +/-20% of Laboratory Glucose Method
Time Frame: 1-2 hours
Subjects with diabetes and healthcare professionals (HCPs) used a new blood glucose monitoring system (BGMS) with subject blood. BGM results were compared to a lab glucose method - Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. Duplicate BG results were used to calculate the number of BG results within +/-15mg/dL (for reference BG results <75mg/dL) or +/- 20% (for reference BG values >/=75mg/dL) of the reference method results.
