Brief Summary:
The study will assess if Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) represents a better tool to guide healthcare providers in adjusting insulin therapy, by providing a more complete 24-hour assessment of glucose values compared to Point of Care (POC) testing, during hospitalization and after hospital discharge in general medicine and surgery patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and Type 1 Diabetes (T1D).
Detailed Description:
Diabetes is reported in 20-34% of hospitalized adult patients in general medicine and surgery units and there is a large body of literature showing a strong association between diabetes and increased hospital mortality and morbidity. Clinical guidelines have recommended the use of basal bolus insulin regimens as the preferred management approach of non-intensive care unit (ICU) patients with diabetes, as it has been shown to be effective in improving glycemic control and reducing hospital complications. However, hypoglycemia is a common adverse event of insulin therapy, with incidence rates ranging between 12% and 35% in randomized studies in non-ICU settings. The development of hypoglycemia, like hyperglycemia, has been associated with higher rates of hospital complications, higher health care resource utilization, and hospital mortality.
Bedside point-of-care (POC) capillary glucose monitoring is the standard of care to assess glycemic control in the hospital. Diabetes guidelines recommend bedside capillary POC testing before meals and at bedtime to assess glycemic control and to adjust insulin therapy in the hospital. In contrast to POC testing, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measures interstitial glucose every 5-15 minutes, thus providing a more complete glycemic profile during 24-hours compared to standard POC glucose testing. The study will assess if CGM represents a better tool to guide healthcare providers in adjusting insulin therapy by providing a more complete 24-hour assessment of glucose values compared to POC testing, during hospitalization and after hospital discharge in general medicine and surgery patients with T2D and T1D.
Participants will be randomized to have the standard of care POC testing plus wear a sham CGM or to wear a real-time Dexcom G6 CGM, which provide BG readings every 5 minutes for up to 10 days during hospitalization. At the point of hospital discharge, participants with poorly controlled diabetes will be invited to participate in an open label outpatient study where they will wear a Dexcom G6 CGM or sham device for 10 days.
