Purpose of study: This research study is being done to better understand how using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), along with your usual diabetes medications, works to improve blood sugars compared to your usual diabetes management. Each qualifying participant will have the opportunity to use a CGM.
The CGM is a small device worn on the upper arm that allows you to see what your blood sugar level is at any time of the day. The system has a sensor that measures blood sugar level continuously and the results can be seen on your smartphone.
Participants will receive the following, at no cost:
– Study-related medical care and lab tests
– Continuous glucose monitoring supplies
– Payment for completed visits
Inclusion Criteria
You may qualify if you:
– Are age 18 or older
– Have type 2 diabetes
– Do NOT take insulin
– Have an A1C of 7.5% or higher
– Have never used a CGM, or have not used one recently
– Meet other study specific requirements
