Type 1 Diabetes
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a randomized trial to determine if an extended wear infusion set can be worn for up to 7 days with a hybrid closed-loop system in adult with Type 1 Diabetes
Detailed description
This study will compare use of a standard infusion set with an extended wear infusion set. Subjects will be asked to wear both types of sets twice for up to 7 days, alternating wear of set type over 4 weeks. The order of infusion set wear will be randomized with the first set wear. The investigators aim to see whether there is a benefit to using an extended wear infusion set.
Interventions
For two of the 4 weeks, the Extended Wear insulin infusion set will be used
For two of the 4 weeks, the standard insulin infusion set will be used

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of infusion set failures due to unexplained hyperglycemia | 14 days for each type of infusion set, with each type of infusion set worn twice | Defined as: 1. Glucose \>250 mg/dL with failure of a correction dose to lower the glucose by 50 mg/dL 2. Ketones ≥0.6 mg/dL with a glucose reading of \>250 mg/dL (in the absence of illness) 3. Evidence of infection at the infusion site (erythema or induration \>1cm in diameter) 4. Pump occlusion alarm |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Duration of infusion set wear | 14 days for each type of infusion set, with each type of infusion set worn twice | The maximum number of days that 75% of the infusion sets are still working, excluding those that kinked on insertion or were accidentally pulled out. |
