    A Study Comparing User Experience of Different Delivery Devices for Glucagon

    NCT03765502

    19 Nov 2018 to 3 Jan 2019

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

The purpose of the study is to learn more about different devices for delivering glucagon during simulations of severe hypoglycemic (low blood sugar) emergencies. The study will be carried out using medical manikins to simulate real life scenarios. No drug will be administered to humans. Part A will last approximately 17 days for Trained Users and Participants with Diabetes (PWD). Part B will last approximately nine (9) days for Untrained Users. Each part will be separated by approximately 7 days.

Interventions

  • Nasal Glucagon Device (NG)Device
  • GEKDevice
  • IM GlucagonDrug

Arms2

  • Experimental

    Nasal Glucagon Device (NG)

    Empty NG device administered to a manikin during simulations of severe hypoglycaemia emergencies. No drug will be administered to humans.

  • Active comparator

    Glucagon Emergency Kit (GEK)

    Commercially available GEK delivered intramuscularly to a manikin during simulations of severe hypoglycaemia emergencies. No drug will be administered to humans.

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Percentage of Trained Users That Performed a Successful Administration for Each Device

    Time frame · Part A: Days 8 - 9 and Days 15 - 17

    Registry description

    Percentage of trained users who found both devices and performed a successful administration of both rescue devices for both simulations.

Secondary outcomes(6)
  1. Percentage of Untrained Users That Perform a Successful Administration for Each Device

    Time frame · Part B: Day 1 and Days 8-9

    Registry description

    Percentage of untrained users who found both devices and performed a successful administration of both rescue devices for both simulations.

  2. Average Time for Trained Users to Successfully Administer One Device Over the Other

    Time frame · Part A: Day 8 and Days 15-17

    Registry description

    Average time for trained users who found both devices to successfully administer one rescue device over the other in Part A.

  3. Average Time for Untrained Users to Successfully Administer One Device Over the Other

    Time frame · Part B: Day 1 and Days 8-9

    Registry description

    Average time for untrained users who found both devices to successfully administer one rescue device over the other in Part B. To successfully administer either NG or GEK, a participant must complete all of the critical steps for each device, and administer a complete dose.

  4. Percentage of Participants (Trained and Untrained Users) That Prefer One Device Over the Other

    Time frame · Part A: Days 8-9; Day 15-17 and Part B: Day 1; Days 8-9

    Registry description

    Overall preference was measured via the Rescue Device Preference (RDP) questionnaire completed by Trained and Untrained participant users. Participants rated their preference for NG or GEK by choosing one of five radio buttons: Strongly prefer NG, prefer NG, no preference, prefer GEK, strongly prefer GEK. Data here represents pooling for Part A and Part B.

  5. Percentage of Participants (PWD) That Prefer One Device Over the Other

    Time frame · Part A: Days 15 - 17

    Registry description

    Preference was measured by the PWD overall feeling of being safer during a severe low blood sugar event using Rescue Device Preference-Associated Person (RDP-AP). Participants rated their preference for NG or GEK by choosing one of five radio buttons: Strongly prefer NG, prefer NG, no preference, prefer GEK, strongly prefer GEK.

  6. Percentage of Participants Trained and Untrained Users That Find One Device Easy to Use Over the Other

    Time frame · Part A: Days 15 -17 and Part B: Days 8 - 9

    Registry description

    Ease of use was measured via the Individual Rescue Device Ease of Use (RDEU) Questionnaire by Trained and Untrained Participants. Participants answered three questions about ease of use for each device by choosing one of five radio buttons: Strongly disagree, disagree, neither disagree nor agree, agree, strongly agree. Data here represents pooling of Simulation 1 for Part A and Part B.
