Primary outcomePrimary: Mean Daily Blood Glucose (BG) Concentration While Hospitalized — 186.8; 183.2 mg/dL

Summary

The study will assess if Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) represents a better tool to guide healthcare providers in adjusting insulin therapy, by providing a more complete 24-hour assessment of glucose values compared to Point of Care (POC) testing, during hospitalization and after hospital discharge in general medicine and surgery patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and Type 1 Diabetes (T1D).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Males and females ≥ 18 years admitted to a general medicine or surgical services.

  • Patients with clinically relevant hepatic disease (diagnosed liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension), corticosteroid therapy, end-stage renal disease (dialysis), or anasarca (massive peripheral edema).
  • 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.
  • Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection
