Obtain a Good Blood Glucose Control With the Paradigm Real Time System (RTD)

December 3, 2018 updated by: Medtronic Diabetes

To Assess Whether Type 1 Diabetic Patients Treated With M D I and in Poor Metabolic Control Can Improve Using the Paradigm® Real Time System Compared to Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose and Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion

In this study, subjects with insufficient metabolic control despite optimized basal-bolus injection regimens were randomily assigned to either the Mini- Med Paradigm REAL-Time insulin pump (PRT), an insulin pump that can receive and display CGM data from a separate subcutaneous glucose sensor, or conventional CSII, and compared glycemic outcomes after 6 months.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The long-term clinical benefit of tight glycemic control in people with diabetes is well known . HbA1c generally assesses the average/long term quality of glycemic control, it has been clearly demonstrated that a target of HbA1c at 7.0% or less has benefits for diabetic patients
