Detailed Description

The purpose of the qualitative research is to provide a deeper understanding of the perspectives of people with T2D who received the NFA when initiating CGM.

A single 30-minute semi-structured interview will be conducted in approximately 15 people who have completed participation in the A21-292 study (also called the My Diabetes Study).

The My Diabetes Study, is a randomized clinical trial to assess the impact of using a NFA or a self-directed approach during CGM initiation. The NFA was developed specifically for the randomized clinical trial study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Describe CGM Data Use by 15 of the Participants During the UNITE/MyDiabetes Study
Time Frame: Immediately following the 2-month study completion visit in the My Diabetes study.
30 minute interviews with each participant were transcribed and thematic coding was used to describe how participants in the My Diabetes Study used their CGM data when making food-related decisions after receiving a nutrition-focused approach during CGM initiation. Narrative summaries of the data were written up to describe the findings from all 15 participants. No objective outcome data is available to present in the outcome measure data table.
Immediately following the 2-month study completion visit in the My Diabetes study.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Describe the Overall Experience of 15 Participants Receiving a Nutrition-focused Approach During CGM Initiation During the UNITE/MyDiabetes Study
Time Frame: Immediately following the 2-month study completion visit in the My Diabetes study.
30 minute interviews with each participant were transcribed and thematic coding was used to describe how participants with T2D in the My Diabetes Study experienced the use of a nutrition-focused approach and its associated nutrition-focused CGM initiation materials during CGM initiation. Narrative summaries of the data were written up to describe the findings from all 15 participants. No objective outcome data is available to present in the outcome measure data table.
