Participant Flow

Participants with type 1 or type 2 diabetes on Multiple Daily Injection(MDI)of insulin(3 or more injections per day)with an HbA1c of 8% or more for their last two tests were recruited at five sites across the United Kingdom. The target enrolment was 50 subjects, with the aim of completing the study with 40 subjects for statistical analysis.

Measure
Intervention Group
Participants using the FreeStyle Navigator System Intermittently. At the start and end of the study subjects wore the FreeStyle Navigator masked (without seeing continuous glucose results) for 5 days (1 sensor wear). During the study subjects used the FreeStyle Navigator fully functional (unmasked) for 2 periods. The first unmasked phase was for 2 weeks (3 sensor wears) following the baseline masked wear. The second unmasked phase was a 5 day wear at 3 months. After each unmasked phase the HCP reviewed results with the subject and changes to insulin regimen were recommended as required. For the remainder of the study a standard blood glucose meter was used for diabetes management.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline & 6 months

Population: Analysis per protocol

Proportion of time (hours per day) in hypoglycaemia (\<3.9 mmol/L) for the masked phase. There were two masked phases in the study, one 5 day wear at baseline and one 5 day wear at 6 months. During masked wear subject were not able to see continuous glucose data from the device.
