Eversense and Dexcom G5: Efficacy and Accuracy in Type 1 Diabetic Patients

NCT03613805 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 16

Summary

Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) systems improve glycaemic control in type 1 diabetic patients but they have different characteristics that could influence patients' quality of life and glycaemic control.

In this randomized cross over study investigators will compare 2 different CGM systems: Eversense implantable sensor (Senseonics, Germantown, MD, USA) and the standard transcutaneous sensor Dexcom G5 (Dexcom, San Diego, CA, USA). Investigators will evaluate sensors' accuracy, impact on quality of life and efficacy in optimizing glycaemic control.

The investigator's study's results might help clinicians choose the sensor and evaluate how sensor differences could impact glycaemic control.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Interventions

DEVICE

Dexcom G5-Eversense

Patients will wear sensor for 3 months, monitor blood capillary values 4 times/day. At the beginning and at the end of the period HbA1c will be measured and questionnaires will be administered

DEVICE

Eversense-Dexcom G5

Patients will wear sensor for 3 months, monitor blood capillary values 4 times/day. At the beginning and at the end of the period HbA1c will be measured and questionnaires will be administered. After 30-50 days of sensor implantation patients will wear also Dexcom G5 for a week to compare accuracy simultaneously
