Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary outcome measure as of 29/12/2016: Ambulatory glucose profile as generated by 14 days of interstitial glucose monitoring. Original primary outcome measure: Overall glycaemic variability is determined using interstitial glucose measurements collected by a continuous glucose monitor over a 14 day period. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary outcome measures as of 30/12/2016: 1. Analysis of the ambulatory glucose profile during day-time hours, night-time hours, pre-meal period, postprandial period, pre-dialysis (6 hour window), post-dialysis (6 hour window and 12 hour window) and hour by hour across the day 2. Analysis of the area under the curve of the ambulatory glucose profile spent hypoglycaemic (10mmol/l and >15mmol/l) 3. Analysis of discrete episodes of the ambulatory glucose profile hypoglycaemic (10mmol/l and >15mmol/l) 4. Score from Stanford patient education centre questionnaire at sensor removal 5. Relationship between dialysis prescriptions and insulin regimes to the overall glycaemic variability is determined using interstitial glucose measurements collected by a continuous glucose monitor over a 14 day period 6. Relationship between glycaemic variability and demographic data (details of past medical, socioeconomic and educational history) is determined through interstitial glucose measurements collected by a continuous glucose monitor over a 14 day period and participant interviews Original secondary outcome measures: The following secondary outcomes are measured during 14 day continuous glucose monitoring 1. Time during 14 day continuous glucose monitoring spent within glucose target range (4-10mmol/L) 2. Time during 14 day continuous glucose monitoring spent above target range > 10mmol/L 3. During 14 day continuous glucose monitoring number of discrete episodes > 10mmol/L 4. Time during 14 day continuous glucose monitoring spent above target range > 15mmol/L 5. During 14 day continuous glucose monitoring number of discrete episodes > 15mmol/L 6. Time during 14 day continuous glucose monitoring spent below target range <3.9mmol/L (70mg/dl) 7 | — |
