CLEAR Trial Summary

This trial aims to see if avoiding low blood sugar episodes can help adults with type 1 diabetes who have trouble recognizing when their blood sugar is low. About 20-25% of adults with type

Who is the study for?
Adults with type 1 diabetes who often don't notice when their blood sugar gets too low can join this study. They should be interested in using new tech like the Omnipod 5 or Medtronic 780G insulin pumps and willing to learn through educational programs designed to help recognize low blood sugar symptoms.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The CLEAR study is testing whether special education programs (HARPdoc and My HypoCOMPaSS) combined with advanced insulin pumps (Omnipod 5 or Medtronic 780G) can help people better sense when their blood sugar drops, which is a common problem in long-term type 1 diabetes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects may include skin irritation from the insulin pump, potential for incorrect insulin dosing leading to very high or low blood sugars, and stress due to constant monitoring of glucose levels.
