NCT06264258 · RECRUITING
Game-based Pediatric Diabetes Education
This trial tests a mobile video game app designed to teach children ages 6 to 12 with Type 1 Diabetes about nutrition and physical activity. Researchers want to see whether playing the game leads to better blood sugar control compared to standard care alone. It is a Phase NA randomized controlled trial, meaning it is evaluating real-world impact rather than early safety or drug efficacy — no medication is involved.
