5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of the trial is to compare two methods of injection in basal-bolus insulin regimen in children with type 1 diabetes with insulin detemir associated with insulin aspart given twice daily in either separate or mixed injections and to investigate if there is any clinical impact in choosing one regimen over another.
