About

Influence of the type of treatment for type 1 diabetes (pump versus multiple injections versus closed loop) on the treatment burden of children and adolescents and their parents.

Full description

"The guidelines for the treatment of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes emphasise an individualised approach to the child and provide target values (time in range, glycaemia and coefficient of variation). These recommendations aim to prevent long-term complications. It is rarely possible to achieve and maintain this level of control over the long term. Achieving these recommendations requires a great deal of investment from children and their families, which can significantly increase their psychological workload and reduce their quality of life.

The main aim of this study was to assess burden of treatment according to the treatment type (pump versus multiple injections versus closed loop) on a large scale."
