Conditions

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Keywords

super bolus, diabetes type 1, insulin bolus, high glycemic index meal, prandial insulin requirement, postprandial glycemia, insulin pump therapy

Brief summary

The aim of this study is to determine whether Super-Bolus is more effective in postprandial glycemic control than Normal-Bolus after the high glycemic index (H-GI) meal in children with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) treated with insulin pump (continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion, CSII).

Interventions

DRUGInsulin Glulisine

A type of bolus insulin will be insulin glulisine if participant used insulin glulisine before entering the trial.

DRUGInsulin Aspart

A type of bolus insulin will be insulin aspart if participant used insulin aspart before entering the trial.

DRUGInsulin Lispro

A type of bolus insulin will be insulin lispro if participant used insulin lispro before entering the trial.

Inclusion criteria

* duration of type 1 diabetes longer than 12months, * insulin pump therapy longer than 3 months, * written informed consent to participate in the study signed by parents (and patient older than 16 years).

Exclusion criteria

* celiac disease, * diabetes related complications (e.g. nephropathy), * BMI at or above the 95th percentile and at or below 3rd percentiles for children and teenagers of the same age and sex, * withdrawal of consent to participate in the study, * comorbid conditions and treatment which could significantly affect glycemic values in the researchers' opinion.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Postprandial Glycemia90 minutes after the prandial bolusPostprandial blood glucose excursion measured by self monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Glucose Area Under the Curve (AUC)3-hours after the prandial bolusMeasurements based on Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)
Mean amplitude of glycaemic excursion (MAGE)3-hours after the prandial bolusMAGE will be defined as a standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG) obtained from all blood glucose concentrations
Capillary blood glucose level 30,60,120,150,180 min after administration of the prandial bolus3-hours after the prandial bolusmeasured by SMBG
Hypoglycemia Episodes3-hours after the prandial bolusHypoglycemia defined as a plasma glucose concentration below or equal 70mg/dl with or without symptoms
Peak glucose level (PG)3-hours after the prandial bolusthe maximum value of glycemia during 3 hours of postmeal time based on CGMS
Time to glucose peak3-hours after the prandial bolusbased on CGMS
Time in postprandial glucose range between 70 to 180 mg/dl (4.0-10.0 mmol/L)3-hours after the prandial bolusbased on CGMS
Glycemic rise (GR)3-hours after the prandial bolusa difference between baseline and the maximum glucose value based on CGMS
