Abstract
For people with type 1 diabetes, the percentage of time in range (TIR; 70-180 mg/dL [to convert to millimoles per liter, multiply by 0.0555]) is recognized as the most effective metric with glycated hemoglobin to assess glycemic control.1 Closed-loop control systems, such as the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ technology (Tandem Diabetes Care Inc), have been reported to increase TIR by 9% among children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes,2 despite the difficulty in achieving glycemic targets in this age group.3,4 Education is also important to optimize glucose control when a new technology is adopted.5,6 We therefore analyzed immediate changes in TIR among a group of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes switching from Tandem Basal-IQ technology toControl-IQ technology.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
