Continuous Glucose Monitoring for High-Risk Type 2 Diabetes in the Hospital (Cyber GEMS)

CGM data will be transmitted from the bedside iPhone to web-based platforms for: (1) Real-Time Management (via iPad-based FOLLOW app used by bedside RN and Digital Dashboard used by the remote monitoring team) and (2) Clinical Optimization (via CLARITY, by which a Diabetes RN Coordinator will conduct remote clinical management of patients from a central, Scripps Diabetes Hub.

CGM data will be blinded and used for evaluation purposes only. Glucose will be monitored via the hospital's standard POC testing protocol (i.e., prior to meals and at bedtime for patients who are eating, and every 4-6 waking hours if not eating). Glucose management in UC is designed to minimize differences between groups, aside from CGM monitoring.
