Trial Outcomes & Findings for In-Clinic and Home-Use Study of a New Blood Glucose Monitoring System (NCT NCT00803777)

NCT ID: NCT00803777

Last Updated: 2016-02-29

Results Overview

Subjects with diabetes (or parents/guardians) and healthcare professionals (HCPs) used a new blood glucose monitoring system (BGMS) with subject capillary blood. BGM results were compared to a lab glucose method - Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) Analyzer. BG results were obtained in duplicate from subjects(158 BG results possible). The number of capillary results within +/- 15mg/dL (for reference blood glucose values \<75mg/dL) or +/- 20% (for reference blood glucose values \>/= 75mg/dL)of the reference results were calculated.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1-2 hours

Population: Some subjects \>=13 years old consented to provide larger capillary samples for YSI glucose analysis. Subjects and HCPs provided duplicate results, but one subject's HCP provided only one glucose result. One subject sample was too small to run the YSI analysis; another subject was given carbohydrate to prevent low blood sugar (no results obtained)

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1-2 hours

Population: One subject's results were not used because the subject was given carbohydrate to prevent low blood sugar.

Duplicate subject Blood Glucose Monitoring System (BGMS) results were compared to healthcare professional (HCP) BGMS results (possible number of results = 292). The number of Subject BGM results within +/- 15mg/dL (for reference BG values \<75mg/dL) and within +/- 20% (for reference BG values \>= 75mg/dL)of the HCP results was calculated.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1-2 hours

Population: Some subjects \>=13 yrs consented to provide larger capillary samples for YSI glucose analysis. One subject's sample was insufficient to run the YSI analysis. Another subject's results were not useable as the subject was given carbohydrate to prevent low blood sugar. Duplicate subject BG results provided 158 possible data points.

The Parkes Error Grid, developed from a survey of 100 clinicians, plots combinations of BG meter measurements against reference method results. Each (x,y) point on the grid is within a risk category, assigned by the clinicians surveyed. Risk categories (increasing severity): ZoneA: No effect on clinical action; ZoneB: Altered clinical action or little/no effect on clinical outcome; ZoneC: Altered clinical action likely to effect clinical outcome; ZoneD: Altered clinical action could have significant medical risk; ZoneE: Altered clinical action could have dangerous consequences

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1-2 hours

Population: For 2 different subjects, study staff did not rate subject success at 1 task.

Subjects or parents/guardians, as applicable, performed meter tasks after reading the User Guide and Quick Reference Guide. The study staff rated the participants on their success at performing the tasks as follows: 1. Successful in performing tasks correctly without assistance 2. Successful after study staff prompted participant to review User Guide. 3. Successful after study staff assisted subject. (Similar to review of a specific function during a Customer Service call.) 4. Subject did not perform task correctly and study staff intervention was required.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1-2 hours

Population: Meter results were used from subject and HCP data that had numeric values for duplicate BG self-tests. One subject data set was not used because subject was given carbohydrate to prevent low blood sugar. Two subjects' meter results contained outliers (NCCLS EP-9A) and one HCP's results had only one replicate result so these sets were not analyzed.

The average Coefficient of Variation (CV) was computed by calculating the square of the CV for each pair of Blood Glucose (BG) self-test results, averaging this square value over the number of subjects included in the analysis, and then taking the square root.
