Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System
Standard system use for 6 months. Followed by open access to the device for 6 months.
Device: Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System

Subjects will wear the Abbott Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System (unmasked) for 6 months to monitor their glucose levels. Post completion of the 6 month intervention, subjects participating in this arm of the study will be given a further 6 month period of open access to the device.

All subjects will wear a masked Abbott Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System, for 14 days prior to randomisation.


Active Comparator: Standard Blood Glucose Monitoring
Subjects randomised to the control group will be given blood glucose meters for monitoring for the 6 months study duration.
Device: Standard Blood Glucose Monitoring

Subjects will use an Abbott Blood Glucose Monitoring System (standard blood glucose meter) for 6 months to monitor their glucose levels. A 14-day masked wear of the Abbott Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System is included for these subjects at the 6 month time point, to collect glycaemic variability data for comparison to the intervention group of the study.

All subjects will wear a masked Abbott Sensor Based Glucose Monitoring System, for 14 days prior to randomisation.





Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. HbA1c at 6 Months [ Time Frame: Baseline and Day 194 ]
    Difference in HbA1c between intervention and control group at day 194 adjusting for baseline HbA1c at day 1 using ANCOVA.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time in Range [ Time Frame: Baseline and Days 194 to 208 ]
    Difference in time in range 70-180 mg/dL between intervention and control group assessed in days 194 to 208 adjusting for baseline (days 1 to 15 time in range) using ANCOVA.

  2. Time Spent <70 mg/dL and <55 mg/dL [ Time Frame: Baseline and Days 194 to 208 ]
    Difference in time <70 mg/dL and <55 mg/dL (hours per day) between intervention and control group assessed in days 194 to 208 adjusting for baseline (days 1 to 15) using ANCOVA.

  3. Frequency of Episodes <70 mg/dL and <55 mg/dL [ Time Frame: Baseline and Days 194 to 208 ]
    Difference in frequency of episodes <70 mg/dL and <55 mg/dL (number per day) between intervention and control group assessed in days 194 to 208 adjusting for baseline (days 1 to 15) using ANCOVA.

  4. Time Spent >180 mg/dL and >240 mg/dL [ Time Frame: Baseline and Days 194 to 208 ]
    Difference in time >180 mg/dL and >240mg/dL (hours per day) between intervention and control group assessed in days 194 to 208 adjusting for baseline (days 1 to 15) using ANCOVA.

  5. Number of Glucose Measurements Performed [ Time Frame: Days 15 to 208 ]
    Number of blood glucose fingerstick tests per day by intervention and control group during days 15 to 208. The number of sensor scans performed by the intervention group during days 15 to 208.

  6. System Utilisation [ Time Frame: Days 15 to 208 ]
    Sensor utilisation assessed by percentage of sensor glucose data collected by the intervention group.

  7. Change in Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQc) Scores From Day 1 to Day 194. [ Time Frame: Baseline and Day 194 ]

    The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire change (DTSQc) score is used to assess relative change in participant satisfaction from baseline. The questionnaire consists of 8 items, 6 of which (1 and 4 through 8) assess treatment satisfaction. Each item is rated on a 7-point Likert scale (which ranges from -3 (much less satisfied) to +3 (much more satisfied). The scores from the 6 treatment satisfaction items are summed to a Total Treatment Satisfaction Score, which ranges from -18 (much less satisfied) to +18 (much more satisfied).

    There is one question to assess the change in perceived frequency of Hypoglycaemia and one question to assess change in perceived frequency of Hyperglycaemia. Each question is rated on a 7-point Likert scale (-3 to +3), -3 (much less of the time now) to +3 (much more of the time now).

    The ANCOVA adjusts for baseline DTSQs (status version).
