NCT ID NCT06638099

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether training healthcare providers to prescribe continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) increases their use among patients with type 2 diabetes. Researchers trained clinic staff at three community health centers serving a mostly Hispanic/Latino population. They then tracked CGM prescription rates and surveyed patients about their diabetes management and any barriers to using CGMs.
