New program aims to keep young diabetics on track with glucose monitoring
NCT ID NCT05854069
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a program called FAMS that helps young adults aged 18-24 with type 1 diabetes use their continuous glucose monitor (CGM) more often. Participants include 140 CGM users who also have high blood sugar or diabetes distress. The goal is to see if the program reduces gaps in CGM use and improves how they respond to glucose data.
