Glucose monitoring for low blood sugar after gastric bypass
Part of Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a new way of using glucose monitoring can help manage low blood sugar that happens after meals in people who have had gastric bypass surgery. It aims to find better ways to track and treat these episodes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had gastric bypass surgery at least one year ago.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have symptoms of low blood sugar that happen 1 to 4 hours after meals, and a test showed your blood sugar was below 3.0 mmol/L at those times.
- You are not taking insulin, sulfonylureas, or systemic corticosteroids.
- You do not have certain serious health conditions, like severe heart, lung, liver, or kidney disease, cancer, or adrenal insufficiency.
- You are not pregnant, and you do not use a continuous glucose monitor or certain other treatments for low blood sugar.

This study looks at how the body handles carbohydrates after eating in people who have had gastric bypass surgery, with or without post-surgery hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). The goal is to understand why some people get low blood sugar after meals and how to better manage it.
This study tests a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that tracks your blood sugar) to see if it helps manage symptoms of late dumping syndrome—a condition causing low blood sugar after meals—in people who had gastric bypass surgery at least a year ago.
This study looks at how a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help manage blood sugar in pregnant women who have had gastric bypass surgery and now have gestational diabetes. It aims to find better ways to monitor and treat diabetes during pregnancy for women after this type of weight-loss surgery.
This study looks at how food moves through the body and how that may affect episodes of low blood sugar caused by too much insulin. It may help researchers better understand and possibly improve care for people who get hypoglycemia, especially after bariatric (weight-loss) surgery.
This study looks at how the hormone glucagon affects blood sugar in people who have had gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy surgery more than a year ago, compared to people who have not had any gastrointestinal surgery. It aims to understand glucose metabolism better and may help improve care for people after bariatric surgery.
This trial tests a medication called mizagliflozin to see if it can reduce episodes of low blood sugar in people who have had gastric bypass surgery. If you experience symptoms like confusion or fainting when your blood sugar drops, this study might help.
