Pilot Study of Connected Diabetes Technology

April 17, 2021 updated by: University of California, Davis
To test the hypothesis that remote sharing of health data - including measured blood glucose values as well as patient-reported carbohydrate counts and insulin doses - with the UC Davis Pediatric Diabetes team via connected health applications is feasible for pediatric patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Application Use
Participants will be asked to use applications to track food intake, carbohydrate counts, insulin delivered, and blood sugar values and share the data with the study team.
Use applications after initial diagnosis to share information with study team.
No Intervention: Standard of Care
The control group will receive usual care during their hospitalizations at the time of diabetes diagnosis, and during the time between hospital discharge and first visit to the UCD Pediatric Diabetes clinic.
