Summary of clinical investigation plan for The DIATEC trial: in-hospital diabetes management by a diabetes team and continuous glucose monitoring or point of care glucose testing — a randomised controlled trial

Summary of DIATEC Trial: Improving In-Hospital Diabetes Management

Background

Up to 20% of hospitalized patients have diabetes, leading to increased mortality, morbidity, and hospital stays. The DIATEC trial aims to improve in-hospital diabetes management strategies.

Methods

The trial is a two-armed, two-site, prospective randomised open-label blinded endpoint (PROBE) trial. Non-critically ill hospitalised patients with type 2 diabetes (N = 166) are recruited. Patients are monitored by point-of-care (POC) glucose testing and managed by in-hospital diabetes teams. In one arm, patients are additionally monitored by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) viewed by the in-hospital diabetes teams only. Both arms have operational algorithms to titrate insulin.

Discussion

The DIATEC trial will demonstrate the effects of in-hospital CGM handled by diabetes teams in non-critically ill patients with type 2 diabetes. It aims to identify which patients will benefit from CGM and in-hospital diabetes teams compared to POC glucose testing, providing essential information to optimize healthcare resources.
