Glucose monitoring study for people having metabolic surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study uses a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that checks blood sugar) to see how sugar levels change in people who have metabolic surgery. You may join if you meet the age and weight requirements and are not on insulin or having a second surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 60 years old
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 35 or higher
- You do not have type 1 diabetes
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You are not on insulin therapy before surgery
- You are having metabolic surgery for the first time, not a revisional surgery

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 study uses a continuous glucose monitor to help people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes better manage their blood sugar and weight, and will test how well it works in a real-world workplace setting.
This study tests whether wearing a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor on your skin that tracks your blood sugar) can help people with prediabetes and obesity better control their blood sugar and lose weight. You will be asked to wear the device for several days to see how your glucose levels change throughout the day.
This study compares wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) all the time versus only now and then for people with type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin. It aims to see which way helps manage blood sugar better.
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 collects small tissue samples during certain abdominal surgeries to better understand what drives severe obesity and related blood-sugar patterns. If you agree to the extra sampling, your information and samples may help researchers build a “biological atlas” that could guide future treatments.
