Closed-loop insulin delivery with the open-source OpenAPS algorithm results in significantly better glucose control than sensor-augmented pump delivery in children and adults in the randomized CREATE trial.
Insulin pump infusion set failures that result in prolonged hyperglycemia occur an average of four times per year per user and are more common in children and adolescents than adults, US study findings indicate.
Use of an insulin pump is not associated with better glycemic control than multiple daily injections among children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, indicate real-world study results.
The amount of carbohydrate needed to treat mild or moderate hypoglycemia in people with type 1 diabetes using a predictive low-glucose suspend system may be considerably lower than what is currently recommended, report researchers.
Starting children on an insulin pump within 6 months of type 1 diabetes diagnosis is associated with improved outcomes relative to delaying for 2 or 3 years, shows an analysis of data from the DPV registry.
