Study Summary

This trial will study the effects of CGM use on diabetes management among people with type 2 diabetes who have limited access to healthcare.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for underserved patients with type 2 diabetes who have an A1c level over 9% and are using insulin or at least two diabetes medications. It's not open to those currently on dialysis, pregnant, using an insulin pump, with language barriers (non-English speakers), implanted medical devices, or cognitive/physical disabilities affecting CGM use.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares the effectiveness of a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) versus a traditional glucometer in managing blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. The aim is to understand the benefits and challenges of CGM use in primary care for underserved populations.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While there may be minimal side effects directly from using a CGM device, potential issues include skin irritation where the sensor is placed, inaccurate readings leading to incorrect insulin dosing, and possible discomfort during insertion.

Participants in this arm will use a Freestyle Libre 2 monitoring device for 6 months to track their blood glucose levels while receiving usual patient care within an interprofessional primary care team.
Group II: Traditional Glucometer ArmActive Control1 Intervention
Participants in this arm will use a traditional glucose monitoring device (glucometer) to self-monitor their blood glucose for 6 months while receiving usual patient care within an interprofessional primary care team.
