Can a simple patch stop diabetes device skin woes?

NCT ID NCT07767461

First seen Aug 17, 2026 ยท Last updated Aug 17, 2026

Summary

This trial tests whether a silicone-based or a hydrocolloid patch placed under insulin pumps or glucose monitors can prevent contact dermatitis from coming back in children aged 2-18. Participants will use different patches and attend visits for skin exams, ultrasounds, and questionnaires. The goal is to find a better way to protect skin so that skin reactions don't stop anyone from getting the diabetes treatment they need.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Silicone-based patch (Hypafix) and hydrocolloid patch (Weloa Sensipatch) used under diabetes devices
What this could lead to
If one patch type works better, it could offer a simple way to prevent skin irritation and help more children with diabetes use their devices comfortably.
What could go wrong
The trial is small and early, so results may not apply to everyone. Some children might still react to the patches themselves, and the study doesn't test long-term effects.
