Conditions

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus with Hyperglycemia, Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus with Hypoglycemia

Keywords

Hypoglycemia, Hyperglycemia, Diabetes, Transcutaneous, Spectral fingerprint, Noninvasive

Brief summary

The primary aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of the Lab demo 1.0 and associated computational models to detect and track glucose changes noninvasively and transcutaneously in defined and dynamic states of glycemia.

Interventions

Lowering of the participants blood glucose with the application of insulin to induce hypoglycaemia, followed by the application of glucose to induce hyperglycaemia and finally insulin to restore euglycemia. During the different glycaemia states, transcutaneous spectral data are collected continuously with the device and paired with reference measurements (venous blood and interstitial fluid).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Changes in spectral fingerprints measured by the Lab Demo 1.0 at fluctuations of venous blood glucose levelsThe data is collected during the study procedure (6 to 8 hours)The primary outcome is to assess the feasibility/capacity of the prototype device to measure changes in spectral fingerprints at fluctuations of venous blood glucose levels in ranges of hypoglycaemic and hyperglycaemic states.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Changes in spectral fingerprints measured by the Lab Demo 1.0 at fluctuations of interstitial fluid glucose levelsThe data is collected during the study procedure (6 to 8 hours)The secondary outcome is to assess the feasibility/capacity of the prototype device to measure changes in spectral fingerprints at fluctuations of interstitial fluid glucose levels in ranges of hypoglycaemic and hyperglycaemic states.
Spectral fingerprints measured by the Lab Demo 1.0The data is collected during the study procedure (6 to 8 hours)This secondary objective consists of describing the spectral fingerprints at different blood glucose levels (defined by both venous blood glucose and interstitial fluid glucose)
