Read our Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 research guide โThis study doesn't follow the usual testing phases โ it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing two ways to give extra support to children and teens with type 1 diabetes who haven't reached their blood sugar goals yet. Some participants will receive monthly video visits with a pediatric endocrinologist from home, while others will get remote glucose monitoring with monthly check-ins from their doctor. Both groups will continue their regular diabetes care as usual.
Many young people with type 1 diabetes struggle to keep their blood sugar at healthy levels. This study wants to see if adding extra telehealth support โ either through video visits or remote monitoring โ can help kids and their families manage their diabetes better between regular clinic appointments.

If you join this study, you'll first do a test run of the technology with the research team to make sure everything works. Then you'll be randomly assigned to one of three groups: one group gets monthly video visits with a diabetes doctor, another group gets remote monitoring with monthly messages from their doctor, and a third group continues with regular quarterly clinic visits. The study lasts six months, and you'll share your blood sugar data electronically so your care team can follow your progress.
