Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) in Prediabetes With Health Education Videos
David S Black, PhD
Summary
The objective of this project is to develop a behavioral intervention that combines wearable continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) with smartphone feedback and educational video clips generated by artificial intelligence (AI) software to improve glycemic control among individuals with pre-diabetes. The goal is to prevent transition to type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Description
The primary objective of this new project is to enhance glycemic control in individuals with prediabetes and deter the progression to Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) within the Los Angeles (LA) County community. Our proposal involves conducting a Phase 0 intervention development study. This study will enlist a final sample of N=50 adults who speak English and/or Spanish, have non-clinical prediabetes, and test positive for prediabetes via a finger-prick A1c% screening. Participants will wear CGM devices for 20 days, with glucose data masked for the first 10 days and unmasked for the next 10 days. During…
