Safer Aging With Diabetes Monitoring

Older adults with type 2 diabetes are at higher risk for severe hypoglycemia and its related complications (including hospitalization and death) when taking insulin. This study proposes to evaluate, in a randomized clinical trial, a strategy of safe insulin prescribing based on an educational program that leverages continuous glucose monitoring to support older adults at high risk for hypoglycemia. If the aims of this project are achieved, this novel care strategy could be widely applied to reduce severe hypoglycemia episodes in older, high-risk adults with type 2 diabetes.
