Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) part-time works as well as wearing it full-time in adults with type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does wearing CGM part-time (2 weeks per month) control blood sugar as well as wearing it continuously?
* How do the two wearing patterns compare for blood sugar levels throughout the day, weight, blood pressure, and patient satisfaction?

Researchers will compare part-time CGM use to continuous CGM use to see if part-time use is just as effective for blood sugar control.

All participants will:

* Wear a CGM device continuously for 3 months to learn how their blood sugar responds to different foods and activities
* Then be randomly assigned to wear CGM either part-time (2 weeks each month) or continuously for another 3 months
* Replace the CGM sensor on their arm every 2 weeks
* Use a smartphone app to track their blood sugar readings
* Visit the clinic 3 times for blood tests and check-ups
* Receive education on adjusting diet based on their CGM readings
* Keep their current diabetes medications unchanged during the study

The study will last about 6 months total. Participants will use the FreeStyle Libre 2 CGM device, which is already approved for use in people with diabetes.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

DEVICE

FreeStyle Libre 2 Continuous Glucose Monitoring

FreeStyle Libre 2 continuous glucose monitoring system consisting of a sensor worn on the upper arm that measures interstitial glucose levels continuously for up to 14 days. Data is transmitted to a smartphone app (FreeStyle LibreLink). The sensor is a Class 3 medical device approved by MFDS (Korea). Participants receive education on adjusting diet based on postprandial glucose patterns observed through CGM. Existing diabetes medications (oral agents and/or GLP-1 agonists) are maintained without changes throughout the intervention period.
