Safer Aging with Diabetes Monitoring
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests a way to help older adults with type 2 diabetes who use insulin avoid dangerously low blood sugar. You would use a continuous glucose monitor and get support via email or internet to stay safe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have type 2 diabetes.
- You currently take insulin.
- You have had low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in the past year.
- You can communicate in English.
- You can access email and the internet.

This trial tests if using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) helps older adults with type 2 diabetes who are not on insulin to better control their blood sugar. The results will show if CGM is a helpful tool for managing diabetes without daily shots.
This study helps older adults with type 2 diabetes understand how their blood sugar and daily activity are connected. You'll wear devices that track your glucose (blood sugar) and movement, and the research team will use this information to help you sit less and move more.
This study tests a program that helps people with both memory problems (like dementia or mild cognitive impairment) and diabetes, along with their caregivers, make better care decisions together. It uses a special device to track blood sugar without fingersticks.
This trial tests using a smartphone to help manage your blood sugar. It's for people with type 2 diabetes who take insulin and whose blood sugar is not well controlled (HbA1c 8% or higher).
This study tests a new way to diagnose diabetes in older adults by using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) — a small sensor worn on the arm — to get a more accurate picture of blood sugar than the standard A1c test alone. If you qualify, you'll wear the sensor for about 48 days, and the results may help your doctor know whether you truly have diabetes.
This study helps older adults with diabetes learn how to use a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), a small device that tracks blood sugar levels in real time. You'll get education and support to manage your diabetes better, and you may have a care partner join you.
