Blood Glucose Differences Using CGMs Between the Left and Right Arm in Patients With Diabetes

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

There are multiple CGMs that are FDA approved. However, there are few studies looking at the variability of measurements between the left and right arm, and none looking at this effect in diabetic patients. This study may identify if glucose differences exist in the left and right arm in patients with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes. Furthermore, it may point to future directions for research to standardize methods of glucose measurement such as consistently measuring on only one side of the body.
