Official title
Comparison of Glycemic Control Among Diabetics Using the 4mm x 32G BD Pen Needle Versus the 8mm x 31G BD Pen Needle and the 5mm x 31G BD Pen Needle
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Anxiety about needles is a commonly expressed concern by diabetics about beginning insulin therapy. A shorter, thinner pen needle that delivers insulin with the safety and efficacy profile of currently marketed pen needles may appeal to many diabetic patients as the new needle may be perceived as less intimidating and more comfortable. Currently marketed pen needles range in length from 5 to 12.7 millimeters (mm). The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the investigational 4mm x 32 Gauge(G) pen needle manufactured by Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD) provides equivalent glucose control (as measured by fructosamine levels) as the currently marketed BD 5mm x 31 G and BD 8mm x 31 G pen needles (PN)in diabetic subjects with varying insulin dosage regimens.
