Conditions studied: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Continuous Glucose Monitor

In brief

The goal of this pilot study is to produce a high-quality, theory-driven, therapeutic, web-based intervention that provides extended training and peer support to adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes who are newly implementing CGM. Overall, this web-based intervention represents an efficient way to bring together professionally-supported CGM educational materials and social support to overcome known barriers and address factors associated with inconsistent CGM use.
