Enhancing Shared Decision-making to Guide Care for People With Dementia and Diabetes
This trial is testing a digital tool called CGM ASSIST, which pairs a wearable blood sugar monitor with easy-to-read interactive displays. The goal is to help people with dementia and diabetes — along with their caregivers and doctors — better understand glucose data and make decisions together. This is a feasibility study, meaning researchers are checking whether the tool is practical and useful, not yet proving it works at scale.
