Remote diabetes monitoring for type 1 diabetes in children and youth
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests a remote diabetes monitoring system that uses WhatsApp to help improve blood sugar control and quality of life in children and young people with type 1 diabetes. It is for those already using a Dexcom CGM and a closed-loop insulin pump.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of type 1 diabetes.
- You need to use a Dexcom continuous glucose monitor (a device that tracks blood sugar levels all day).
- You must have a smartphone that can receive WhatsApp messages.
