Randomized Trial to Assess the Effect of Using Alternate Site Blood Glucose Testing Versus Finger-Tip Testing on Long-Term Glycemic Control.

Boston Medical Center·interventional·Posted Sep 21, 2005·Updated Feb 11, 2009

In Brief

A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Alternate site blood glucose testing for Diabetes Mellitus. Completed, across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The objective is to assess the effect of using ASBG (alternate site blood glucose) versus FTBG (finger tip blood glucose) testing on long-term glycemic control in diabetics. Since ASBG measurements appear to lag behind FSBG measurements at times of changing glucose concentration, it is possible that ASBG measurements will yield lower postprandial readings than FTBG, potentially causing a negative impact on long-term control. It is also possible that since ASBG is reportedly more comfortable than FTBG testing, it's use might improve adherence to testing and improve long term control.
