Flash Glucose Monitoring and Education
Participants will wear the flash glucose monitoring system, and receive an education package on how to self-manage their glucose levels. They will use the flash glucose monitoring system continuously for 6 weeks. From week 6 to week 24, the frequency of use of flash glucose monitoring will be reduced to one sensor every 4 weeks. They will receive education at weeks 0, 2, 8 and 16. They will also wear a blinded sensor for the last 2 weeks of the intervention period (week 25 to week 26). After the first 24 weeks, participants enter the observation phase (weeks 38 to 52) wherein they will be encouraged to continue monitoring their glucose levels through capillary glucose monitoring, during pre-meals and bedtime daily.
Capillary glucose monitoring and Education
Participants will use a capillary glucose meter and receive an education package on how to self-manage their glucose levels. Participants will be encouraged to test their blood glucose levels at least twice a day, but preferably 4 times daily: pre-meal and bedtime blood glucose levels. They will receive education at weeks 0, 2, 8 and 16. They will wear a blinded sensor again after the last 2 weeks of the intervention period (week 24 to week 26). After the first 24 weeks, participants enter the observation phase (weeks 38 to 52) wherein they will be encouraged to continue monitoring their glucose levels through capillary glucose monitoring, during pre-meals and bedtime daily.
