Truway Diagnostic Tools for Type 2 Diabetes
(TruDxPC Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial aims to determine if portable diagnostic devices, such as the Truway Blood Glucose Monitor and the Truway Portable Ultrasound Device, can help doctors more accurately identify chronic conditions like diabetes in primary care settings. Participants will either use these devices or follow regular care routines for six months to assess which method better improves diagnosis and management of these health issues. Individuals who have managed a chronic condition like diabetes with stable treatment for at least four weeks may be suitable for this study. As an Early Phase 1 trial, this research focuses on understanding how these diagnostic devices function in people, offering participants a chance to contribute to groundbreaking medical advancements.
Do I have to stop taking my current medications for the trial?
The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. However, it requires that you have a stable treatment plan for at least 4 weeks before joining, so you might need to continue your current medications.
What prior data suggests that these diagnostic devices are safe for use in outpatient primary care settings?
Research has shown that the FDA regulates the Truway Health portable ultrasound device, indicating it has met specific safety standards. This regulation suggests the device is likely safe for use in people, as it has passed various tests for approval.
While specific safety data for the Truway Blood Glucose Monitor is not yet available, similar devices have been shown to help manage blood sugar levels in adults. This suggests that these types of devices are generally considered safe and helpful.
As the trial is in an early stage, detailed safety data might not be available yet. However, the use of FDA-regulated devices and findings from similar technologies provide some reassurance about their safety for people.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial?
Researchers are excited about this trial because it explores innovative tools for better managing Type 2 Diabetes. Unlike traditional methods that rely mainly on blood tests and physical exams, the Truway Blood Glucose Monitor and Truway Portable Ultrasound Device offer a more comprehensive approach. These devices aim to enhance early detection of diabetes and related conditions by providing real-time data and insights into a patient's health. With the potential to improve diagnostic accuracy and clinical outcomes, these tools could revolutionize how chronic conditions are monitored and treated.
What evidence suggests that these diagnostic devices are effective for early detection of chronic conditions?
This trial will evaluate the effectiveness of Truway's diagnostic devices. Participants in the intervention group will use Truway's portable blood glucose monitors. Studies have shown these monitors help people with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar levels. Users of similar monitors spent 21% less time with low blood sugar and 23% less time with high blood sugar compared to those not using the device. Additionally, more than half of the users reduced their A1c levels, which measure average blood sugar, by at least 0.5%.
The intervention group will also use the Truway Portable Ultrasound Device. Research indicates that this device can detect early signs of long-term conditions like heart disease by assessing the health and stiffness of blood vessels, which is crucial for identifying potential heart problems. These devices could lead to quicker and more accurate diagnoses in primary care settings.16789Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for individuals with chronic conditions like Type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and more. Participants should be interested in using new diagnostic tools (ultrasound and blood glucose monitors) to manage their health. Specific eligibility criteria are not provided.Inclusion Criteria

Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Participants (n=100) will use Truway Health-sourced portable ultrasound and blood glucose monitors under supervised primary care protocols. The intervention aims to enhance early detection of chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, cardiovascular disease) over 6 months, with follow-ups at 3 and 6 months to assess diagnostic accuracy and clinical outcomes. Devices are calibrated and provided by Truway Health, Inc., with training for care providers.
Participants (n=100) will receive standard care without Truway diagnostic devices, following routine primary care practices for chronic condition management. Outcomes will be compared to the intervention group over 6 months, with follow-ups at 3 and 6 months to evaluate standard diagnostic accuracy and clinical results. No additional devices or training are provided.
