About this trial

This is an open-label, prospective, multicenter observational study designed to evaluate the perceived benefits, device experience, preference, and glucose-related parameters associated with the Instara-1 Continuous Glucose Monitoring device. The study will include patients with diabetes and healthcare professionals. Patients will use Instara- 1 and will be followed up to assess device experience, glucose parameters, and diabetes-related quality of life. Healthcare professionals will evaluate device experience and preference, including comparison with FreeStyle Libre 2.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Benefit, device experience and preference of continuous glucose monitoring by patients and HCPs

A user experience questionnaire will be used to assesses how glucose monitoring helps in overall diabetes management, including understanding the effect of food, exercise, and stress on glucose levels, recognizing glucose trends, improving self-management and decision-making, increasing confidence and safety, supporting better communication with healthcare providers improving overall quality of life with diabetes. A 5 point Likert scale will be used to translate subjective experience into structured, comparable feedback

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 3 weeks.
2

Sensor and mobile application experience of continuous glucose monitoring by patient and comparison with Free Style®Libre 2

The study will use an evaluation Questionnaire focusing on the usability of the sensor and mobile app. To capture functional experience, behavioral and emotional impact a 5 point Likert scale will be used to translate subjective experience into structured, comparable feedback with 1 being strongly disagree and 5 being strongly agree. The questionnaire will include questions regarding, comfort of wearing the sensor, interference with daily life, pain or inconvenience, perceived reliability of glucose readings, system performance throughout use, overall user friendliness and willingness to use sensor again or recommend it to others.

Time frame
From the time of enrollment to end of week 3.

Secondary outcomes

1

eHbA1c%

Time frame
At week1, week 3, week 6, week 9 and week 12
2
