Safer Aging With Diabetes Monitoring for Type 2 Diabetes
This study is looking at a new way to help older adults (75 and older) with type 2 diabetes who take insulin and are at high risk for low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). It compares two groups: one receives three educational group sessions and a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), and the other receives their usual care. The goal is to see if the educational program with CGMs can reduce episodes of low blood sugar. To join, you must be 75 or older, have type 2 diabetes, use insulin, have a history of low blood sugar, speak English, and use email/internet. The study aims to enroll 360 people. The current recruitment status is unclear.

What this trial measures
- Hypoglycemia aggregate outcome6 and 12 months after study start date
This outcome will compare the proportion of patients in the three study arms with self-reported hypoglycemia (symptomatic and/or requiring help from others) and/or hypoglycemia-related utilization (emergency department, hospital or outpatient new events) 6- and 12-months after enrollment
