Telehealth and CGM for Diverse Diabetic Patients

This study is designed to see if using a Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) device, along with a Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) program, can help people with diabetes manage their blood sugar better and avoid returning to the hospital. It focuses on people whose diabetes is not well controlled and who have recently left the hospital. By utilizing these innovative monitoring tools, the study aims to find out if more consistent and real-time tracking of blood sugar can lead to better health outcomes, like lower Hemoglobin A1c levels, fewer hospital readmissions, and improved overall health. Participants in the study are divided into two groups: one group receives the usual diabetes care, while the other group gets a Dexcom G7 CGM device and support from specially trained nurses. These nurses check the participants' glucose readings every day. The study lasts for 90 days, during which it measures how well the participants' blood sugar levels are controlled and how often they need to go back to the hospital. This approach hopes to provide insights into whether continuous monitoring and remote support can effectively enhance diabetes management.
