Enhancing Digitally Delivered Diabetes Education With Real-Time CGM
February 28, 2024 updated by: Scripps Whittier Diabetes Institute
Enhancing Digitally Delivered Diabetes Education With Real-Time CGM: A Comparative Study in People With Type 2 Diabetes
The current research study will add continuous glucose monitoring devices to the evidence-based text messaging diabetes education program for patients with type 2 diabetes for 6 months.
Results on the effectiveness of this intervention will be compared for non-insulin using patients.

Detailed Description
The current research study seeks to investigate the impact of incorporating Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) into the evidence-based text messaging diabetes education program, Dulce Digital, focusing on individuals with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) who are not on insulin therapy.
This innovative approach stems from the rationale that real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can offer valuable insights into glycemic control, thereby enhancing diabetes self-management.
In standard care, individuals with T2D, particularly those not on insulin, may not routinely have access to CGM devices.
The CGM device, an integral part of recommended diabetes therapy, is FDA approved for use in all people with diabetes.
However, reimbursement for CGM devices varies by health plans, and currently, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) does not reimburse for their use in non-insulin-using diabetes, except in cases of repeated severe hypoglycemia.
Despite this, we hypothesize that there are both clinical and financial benefits to providing a CGM device during diabetes self-management education for individuals with non-insulin-using T2D.
This study aims to determine if adding a CGM device for this patient category yields significant benefits, contributing to our understanding of the potential advantages and informing future diabetes care practices.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: CGM Group
Participants will be provided continuous glucose monitors (Dexcom G7) to monitor blood glucose for the entire duration of this study (i.e., one new device every 10 days for a total of 18 devices to last up to 6 months).
|
Text-based education support program:
Participants will be provided continuous glucose monitors (Dexcom G7) to actively monitor blood glucose for the entire duration of this study (i.e., one new device every 10 days for a total of 18 devices to last up to 6 months).
In addition, participants will attend an information session (group or individual; in-person or virtual) that will provide you with instructions on using continuous glucose monitors.
|
Other: Usual Care Blood Glucose Monitoring Group
Participants will use standard blood glucose monitoring devices that are covered by health insurance.
