NCT ID NCT06331923

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This trial tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) before and after major surgery can reduce complications in adults with diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance. Participants wear the device for at least 6 hours before surgery and up to 7 days after, while a comparison group receives standard glucose checks. The goal is to see if CGM leads to fewer and less severe complications within 30 days after surgery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device
What this could lead to
If effective, CGM could become a standard tool to reduce post-surgical complications in people with diabetes.
What could go wrong
This is a large pragmatic trial, but the benefit of CGM over conventional monitoring in surgical settings is not yet proven, and device calibration or patient adherence may affect results.
