Using glucose monitors to manage heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether wearing a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that tracks blood sugar) can help people with heart failure and diabetes manage their health after being in the hospital. It may help doctors understand how blood sugar levels affect heart failure recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 90 years old.
- You are currently in the hospital for heart failure symptoms (like shortness of breath or swelling).

This trial tests whether using your own continuous glucose monitor (CGM) while you are in the hospital (but not the ICU) can help better manage your blood sugar levels. If you already use a CGM at home and are admitted for at least two days, you may be able to keep using it during your stay.
This study tests a continuous glucose monitor (a sensor that tracks glucose) for people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who receive care at home through Mayo’s Advanced Care at Home program. It may help by improving how safely and accurately blood sugar is followed while you’re at home.
This study tests if using a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that checks blood sugar without finger pricks) helps people with type 2 diabetes who are on insulin and have trouble accessing care. It's for patients in the New Orleans area with Medicaid, free care, or no insurance.
This trial tests if using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) after leaving the hospital helps manage diabetes. You wear a small sensor on your arm that checks your sugar levels all day and sends them to your phone.
This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) after leaving the hospital can help prevent patients from being readmitted. A CGM is a small wearable device that tracks your blood sugar around the clock.
This trial tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) when you leave the hospital helps control blood sugar better. If you have type 2 diabetes and use insulin, you may be able to join.
