Interest of SmartGuard Technology (Predictive System for Stopping Insulin Before Hypoglycemia) in Children With Type 1 Diabetes Treated With Insulin Pump

May 20, 2022 updated by: CHU de Reims

Management of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes is essentially insulin therapy using insulin pump, allowing the improvement of the glycemic balance.

However, the risk of hypoglycaemia inherent to the treatment persists. Hypoglycemia is an acute complication in the management of diabetes. It can be manifested by warning signs (tremors, sweats, feelings of hunger ...) but also occur during sleep and be ignored. It can be responsible for asthenia, difficulty concentrating and attention and memory problems.

In order to decrease time spent in hypoglycemia, insulin pump therapy can be coupled with a continuous glucose measurement system with a stop insulin pump function in case of hypoglycemia.

The aim of the study is to evaluate efficacy of the predictive system for stopping before hypoglycaemia "medtronic Minimed with SmartGuard technology" in type 1 diabetic children, especially on the time spent in hypoglycemia .

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: insulin pump function
continuous glucose monitoring and then continuous glucose monitoring with the stop insulin pump function
Children with type 1 diabetes using insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring without the stop insulin pump functionare then using the predictive system for stopping before hypoglycaemia "medtronic Minimed with SmartGuard technology".
