About this study

Official title: Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose Study#1: The Ability of People With Diabetes to Use OneTouch(R) Ultrasmart(tm) to Improve Glycemic Control Through Behavioral and Therapeutic Changes

Insulin therapy requires monitoring and frequent review of glucose levels to optimize dosing. Effective presentation and data analysis are essential. We examined HbA1c changes using the OneTouch(R) UltraSmart(R) System (Test Group), an integrated glucose meter and electronic logbook, compared to established meters with paper logbooks (Control Group).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OneTouch(r) UltraSmart(r) in people with Diabetes, run by LifeScan at 7 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00333853, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 May 2008.
