Sleep and Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes Adolescents
This study is looking at how sleep affects blood sugar control in teenagers (ages 12-20) with Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM). The researchers want to see if there's a link between how much sleep you get and your blood sugar levels, measured by hemoglobin A1c (a long-term blood sugar test). They are also testing an intervention called a "loss frame sleep extension intervention" using Fitbit and text messages to help participants sleep more. The goal is to see if increasing sleep can improve blood sugar control. The study aims to enroll 90 participants and is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
- Study design
- This study involves different parts, including a cross-sectional design for 67 participants and an interventional design for 15 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.
- What's involved
- Participants will wear an actigraphy watch for 14 days and a Libre continuous glucose monitor (CGM). Some participants will also use a Fitbit and receive text messages as part of the sleep intervention.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Sleep duration will be measured at 13 weeks for one part of the study.
