DIAbetes TEam and Cgm in Managing Hospitalised Patients with Diabetes (DIATEC) 166

Completed
Clinical Trial NCT05803473 (DIATEC) was an interventional study for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 that is now completed. The study started on 11 April 2023, with plans to enroll 166 participants. Led by Peter Kristensen, the expected completion date was 29 July 2024. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 26 February 2025.
Brief Summary
This trial investigates the effects of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and an in-hospital diabetes team on in-hospital glycemic and clinical outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes compared to standard glucose point-of-care (POC) testing and an in-hospital diabetes team.
Detailed Description
In Denmark and worldwide, 15-20 % of hospitalised patients have diabetes mellitus. For most patients, diabetes is not the primary cause of admission. The patients are therefore under the care of non-diabetes specialists. Consequently, diabetes management can be inadequate resulting in hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, and increased glycemic variability, which might increase patient mortality, morbidity, and length of hosp...Show More

Arms / Interventions
Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
Active ComparatorPOC-arm
Subjects are monitored by point-of-care (POC) glucose testing. Diabetes management is done by usual ward nurses and guided by an in-hospital diabetes team. A blinded CGM is mounted in the POC-arm for outcome analysis.
FreeStyle Precision Pro Glucometer for glucose POC testing
For the POC-arm subjects, glucose assessment is done by standard ward glucometer.
ExperimentalCGM-arm
CGM-arm subjects are monitored by CGM viewed by the in-hospital diabetes team in addition to POC glucose testing performed by usual ward nurses. Diabetes management is done by usual ward nurses by POC glucose testing and guided by an in-hospital diabetes team with acces to CGM data.
Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (Dexcom Inc., San Diego, USA)
For CGM-arm subjects, glucose data are obtained by the CGM Dexcom G6 which via an iPhone SE 3 transmits data to the in-hospital diabetes team stations to be displayed on an iPad 9 10.2".
