The purpose of this research study is to test if CGMs are tolerable to youth with pre-diabetes (PD) and their caregivers. We are also evaluating if CGMs add benefit to standard treatment in youth with prediabetes. The CGM in question, Abbott Freestyle Libre 2 is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat patients aged 4 and up with diabetes. We want to determine if this CGM may benefit people who have PD. People who enter the study will either receive standard medical care for prediabetes or receive standard medical care for prediabetes plus use a CGM for 2 weeks each month to receive real-time biofeedback on their glucose levels during the day.
There will be 3 visits over a 6-month period, baseline, 3-month, and 6-month visits. At each visit fasting labs will be obtained including: complete metabolic panel, lipid panel, pro-insulin, c-peptide, insulin. Anthropomorphics including body mass index, waist circumference, and hip circumference will be monitored.
