This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system—a small sensor you wear on your skin that tracks your blood sugar automatically throughout the day—helps older adults with type 2 diabetes manage their condition better than traditional fingerstick blood glucose checks. Researchers want to see if this new technology not only improves blood sugar control but also helps with stress and worry related to managing diabetes. Half of the participants will use the CGM sensor, and half will use a standard blood glucose meter.
Many older adults struggle to keep their blood sugar in a healthy range even when taking diabetes pills. This study exists to find out whether this treatment can make managing diabetes easier and more effective, especially for people who don't use insulin.

If you join this study, you'll visit the clinic every 2 months for 6 months total. You'll be randomly assigned to either wear a continuous glucose sensor (which you'll change every 2 months) or use a traditional blood glucose meter with fingerstick testing a couple of times a week. You'll also keep a simple diary of your blood sugar readings and attend follow-up appointments where the research team will check how well your diabetes is controlled and ask about how you're feeling emotionally.
