900-P: Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Youth with Type 2 Diabetes: A Pilot and Feasibility Study

Objective: Real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is effective for diabetes management in T1D and adults with T2D, but has not been assessed in youth with T2D. The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of CGM use in youth with T2D. Methods: Youth (13- 21 years old) with T2D ≥ 6 months and A1c > 7%, on any FDA approved treatment regimen were included. After a blinded run-in period, participants were given a Dexcom G6 CGM system for 12 weeks. The use and acceptability of the real-time CGM were evaluated by sensor usage, surveys, and focus group qualitative data. Results: Youth (n=8) had median age 19.4 (IQR 15.5-20.6) years, were 75% female, 50% hispanic/latino ethnicity, 50% non-English speaking at home, and 91% had public insurance. Baseline A1c was 11.7 (±2.8)% with mean diabetes duration of 2.5 (IQR 1.4 - 5.1) years and 75% were on basal insulin. Of the 7 participants who have completed the CGM intervention, all reported CGM was a positive experience (50% very positive, 50% slightly positive), easy to use (50% very easy, 50% easy), and useful (83% useful, 17% useful). All participants desired to continue to use real-time CGM in the future. 85% were “extremely” likely to recommend real-time CGM to friends. 67% of participants self-reported eating fewer meals while using CGM. All participants used sensors for the duration of the study. Conclusion: Real-time CGM is feasible and acceptable for youth with type 2 diabetes. Larger randomized controlled trials are needed to assess effects on glycemic control, healthy lifestyle changes, and diabetes distress. Disclosure H. Chesser: None. S. Srinivasan: None. J. C.
