Could a smart patch help older diabetics ditch the finger pricks?
NCT ID NCT07007676
First seen Sep 30, 2025
Summary
This study is testing whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help older adults with type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin achieve better blood sugar control. Participants will either wear a CGM every two months or use standard finger-stick monitoring for six months. The main goal is to see if CGM leads to a greater drop in HbA1c levels.
