Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy for Youth with Type 2 Diabetes

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Participants aged 8–21 with type 2 diabetes will complete a four-week CGM Academy education program that includes an online workbook, instructional videos, and virtual sessions with a diabetes educator. They will use their preferred continuous glucose monitor (Dexcom or FreeStyle Libre) and receive a six-month clinical follow-up. The trial compares the CGM Academy curriculum with standard education to determine feasibility, effects on CGM-derived glycemic metrics, and links between those metrics and diabetes distress and family responsibilities. Outcomes include feasibility measures, CGM metrics, and patient-reported process measures.
