NCT ID NCT07088497
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a new device called the Cmate blood glucose analyzer, which measures blood sugar without needing a finger prick. Researchers compared its readings to standard blood tests in 40 healthy, pre-diabetic, and diabetic adults. The goal is to see if this non-invasive method is accurate enough for home use, potentially making blood sugar monitoring less painful and more convenient.
