Brief Summary
This is an exploratory prospective study primary aiming to evaluate differences between Point-of-care (POC) testing (standard of care) and Dexcom G6 CGM (Continues Glucose Monitoring sensor system) in 1) glycemic control measured by mean daily blood glucose and 2) identifying hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic events - in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes treated with basal bolus insulin regimen.

Study Arms (1)
Dexcom G6 CGM - Continues Glucose Monitoring sensor system
EXPERIMENTALThe Dexcom G6 CGM is a commercially available factory-calibrated sensor system. The system measures interstitial glucose every 5-15 minutes, providing real-time and more complete glycemic profile during 24-hours compared to standard POC glucose testing, and replaces the need for finger sticking. Potential limitations include the need for removing the sensor before MRI or diathermy treatment, and the potential interference in patients with severe dehydration. In parallel, same participants will be monitored by the standard of care point-of-care (POC) capillary glucose tests. Diabetes guidelines recommend bedside capillary POC testing before meals and at bedtime to assess glycemic control and to adjust insulin therapy in the hospital.
Interventions
A blinded factory-calibrated continues glucose monitoring sensor system Dexcom G6 will be placed shortly after admission. Two CGM devices will be inserted in all patients - one in the abdomen and one in the arm to also assess differences in blood glucose readings between upper extremity and abdominal insertion sites. Information on CGM readings will be collected daily during the hospital stay and after hospital discharge for 10 days using the Dexcom Studio software to download the Dexcom receiver data.
Standard of care - bedside point-of-care (POC) capillary blood glucose (BG) monitoring will be done before meals and bedtime daily during the hospital stay and after hospital discharge for 10 days.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- \> 18 years admitted to a general medicine or surgical service.
- Known history of T1D or T2D receiving insulin therapy
- Subjects must have a randomization BG between 140 mg and 400 mg/dL without laboratory evidence of diabetic ketoacidosis (bicarbonate \< 18 mEq/L, pH \< 7.30, or positive serum or urinary ketones).
- Patients with expected hospital length-of-stay of 3 or more days
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with acute illness admitted to the ICU or expected to require admission to the ICU.
- Patients expected to require MRI procedures during hospitalization.
- Mental condition rendering the subject unable to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study.
- Female subjects who are pregnant or breast-feeding at time of enrollment into the study.
