Filter by:This is a single-centre, mixed-methods, prospective study in pediatric patients with T1D initiating Control-IQ technology on the Tandem t-slim X2 insulin pump. Primary Objective: To determine pediatric T1D patients' and their parents' perceptions of the impact of Control-IQ on their psychosocial functioning and quality of life.
A cross-sectional multicenter study using a questionnaire assessing occupational and financial situation before and after the onset of type 1 diabetes was distributed to all families with a child diagnosed with type 1 diabetes before the age of 14 years in nine German pediatric diabetes centers.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of the add-on of extra vergin olive oil or butter to a high glycemic index meal on endothelial function in subjects with type 1 Diabetes and healthy subjects.
The study will follow subjects for 28 days while using an DUO extended infusion set combined with glucose sensor. the objective is to evaluate saftey and efficacy of the set in adult patient with type 1 diabetes.
The use of insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors for Type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been shown to improve glycemic control while also decreasing the risk for acute and chronic complications. Unfortunately, there are vast disparities in access to this technology; non-Hispanic black youth with public healthcare insurance are the least likely to have access to these technologies. We propose to conduct a non-randomized interrupted time series study to assess the impact of hybrid closed loop (HCL) insulin delivery in underserved youths with poorly controlled T1D. Patients will complete standard diabetes education before beginning to use this technology and will be followed for 6-months after starting HCL to assess its impact on glycemic control and health-related quality of life.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune metabolic disease characterised by impaired lack of endogenous insulin causing elevated plasma glucose levels and increased risk of microvascular and macrovascular complications. With respect to the cardiovascular system, patients with T1D have an up to 10-fold increased risk of sudden cardiac death compared to healthy individuals. Furthermore, diabetes constitutes a hypercoagulable state, which to some extent may explain why cardiovascular disease still is a major cause of mortality in patients with T1D. Due to treatment with exogenously delivered insulin, glycaemic variability with intra-day and inter-day plasma glucose concentrations fluctuating between high levels (peaks) and low levels (nadirs), are inevitable in patients with T1D. A potentially important factor in development of cardiovascular disease, associated with glycaemic variability, is the rate of increase and/or decline of plasma glucose. The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that a rapid plasma glucose decline from a hyperglycaemic level to an euglycaemic level can induce changes in QT-interval and blood coagulation in a proarrhythmogenic and prothrombotic way. Twenty patients with T1D with a 1:1 distribution with chronic hyperglycaemia (HbA1C ≥63 mmol/mol) and with well-controlled diabetes (HbA1C ≤53 mmol/mol) will be recruited for a crossover study including two test days (protocols), P-rapid, a combined hyperglycaemic and euglycaemic clamp with rapidly declining plasma glucose and P-slow, a combined hyperglycaemic and euglycaemic clamp with slowly declining plasma glucose. Patients will be randomised 1:1 to start with P-rapid or P-slow. The cardiovascular effects will be investigated using Holter-ECG, Thrombelastography, Echocardiography and blood sampling. Given that cardiovascular disease is a major cause of death in patients with T1D and that patients with diabetes may be more susceptible for cardiac arrhythmias and thrombotic events compared to healthy individuals, it is important to identify cardiovascular risk factors related to acute changes in plasma glucose in order to improve prevention strategies and therapy.
The purpose of this study is to learn whether an investigational automated insulin delivery system ("study system") for young children (2 yo to less than 6 yo) with type 1 diabetes can safely improve blood glucose (sometimes called blood sugar) control.
This is a pilot, interventional clinical trial to assess the effectiveness and safety of artificial pancreas (AP) using the ARG algorithm closed-loop system in a monitored 3-day period outpatient study. Once the safety of the device has been validated in the open-loop first 3-day period (continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) plus continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)) the investigators will move the study to the second 3-day closed-loop period, without carbohydrate (CHO) counting.
An artificial pancreas (AP) is a control system for automatic insulin delivery. Our group has implemented a fading memory proportional derivative controller (FMPD) for use within an AP control system which has been evaluated in clinical studies. However, the long action of insulin (90 minutes for peak action) makes it challenging to control insulin with a classical proportional derivative system. The study described within this protocol is designed to test the effectiveness of a new model-predictive control (MPC) AP that modulates insulin delivery based on estimated activity level. The potential benefit of this type of AP is that it handles exercise not as a discrete event, but it automatically adjusts insulin delivery based on estimated activity level calculated at every 5 minute cycle. This type of algorithm may significantly improve glucose control over our FMPD AP, which is designed only to detect exercise when activity level goes above a threshold for a specific duration of 45 minutes.
The objective of this study was to evaluate a virtual diabetes clinic model, for adults with either type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes, that supports integration of CGM into diabetes self-management and use of decision support technology.
