Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome parameter in this study is the rate of decline in glucose (mmol/hour) after reaching peak glucose levels (Cmax) until reaching baseline (t = -5) blood glucose levels or, in case baseline blood glucose levels are not reached, the lowest observed blood glucose level. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| • incremental Area Under the Curve (iAUC) for: o glucose (mmol/L/hrs) o insulin (pmol/L/hrs) o paracetamol (mg/L/hrs) • incremental peak levels (iCmax) of: o glucose (mmol/L) o insulin (pmol/L) o paracetamol (mg/L) • time to peak levels (Tmax) of: o glucose (min) o insulin (min) o paracetamol (min) | — |
