Tiny sensor tracks blood sugar in kidney transplant patients
NCT ID NCT07271433
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help track blood sugar levels in 20 people with type 2 diabetes who had a kidney transplant. Participants wore a small sensor that measured glucose around the clock. The goal was to see how often blood sugar stayed in a safe range and whether it could help reduce hospital readmissions.
