Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess the strength of the relationship between the extent of insulin absorption and tissue flow resistance (i.e., the resistance exerted by the tissue on the infused insulin solution) during prolonged use of an insulin infusion site. ;Secondary Objective: To determine the histologic correlate of the increased tissue flow resistance in the tissue surrounding an insulin infusion cannula. & To ascertain the cause of the reduction in the extent of insulin absorption after prolonged infusion site use. ;Primary end point(s): AUCinsulin, area under the plasma insulin concentration curve ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: during a 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) per visit | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - TFR, tissue flow resistance determined on each day during infusion site usage - TINSmax, time to reach the maximum plasma insulin concentration during the 5-h OGTTs - GLUmean3-5h, average plasma glucose concentration during the last 2 hours of the 5-h OGTTs - AUCglucose, area under the plasma glucose concentration curve observed during the 5-h OGTTs - TGLUmax, time to reach the maximum plasma glucose concentration during the 5-h OGTTs - CLL, number of cells per tissue section - CollF, number of collagen fibrils per tissue section - InsF, number of insulin fibrils per tissue section - number of iproteolytic enzymes (like insulin degrading enzymes) per tissue section ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: before/during the OGTT per visit | — |
