Glu-COACH: a Peer-mentoring Intervention to Reduce Disparities in Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) Use (NCT06171412)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This is a study to develop and evaluate a peer mentoring intervention for Black and Latinx adolescents with type 1 diabetes to increase the initiation and maintenance of a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device. This device is a standard of care to improve diabetes management related to diet, exercise, and insulin. Use of CGM has been shown to improve health outcomes, but is not used by adolescents of color. Peer mentors may help improve usage.
