About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 focused on measuring super bolus, diabetes type 1, insulin bolus, high glycemic index meal, prandial insulin requirement, postprandial glycemia, insulin pump therapy

Eligibility Criteria

10 Years - 18 Years (Child, Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • duration of type 1 diabetes longer than 12months,
  • insulin pump therapy longer than 3 months,
  • written informed consent to participate in the study signed by parents (and patient older than 16 years).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • celiac disease,
  • diabetes related complications (e.g. nephropathy),
  • BMI at or above the 95th percentile and at or below 3rd percentiles for children and teenagers of the same age and sex,
  • withdrawal of consent to participate in the study,
  • comorbid conditions and treatment which could significantly affect glycemic values in the researchers' opinion.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Experimental

Arm Label

Normal Bolus

Super Bolus

Arm Description

Pre-breakfast insulin will be given as a Normal Bolus 15 minutes before the high-glycemic index meal (cornflakes and milk). The Normal Bolus will be calculated based on individual insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio (ICR).

Pre-breakfast insulin will be given as a Super Bolus 15 minutes before the high-glycemic index meal (cornflakes and milk). The Super Bolus will be calculated based on individual ICR increased to 150% and basal insulin will be suspended for 2 hours at the same time.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Postprandial Glycemia
Postprandial blood glucose excursion measured by self monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Hypoglycemia Episodes
Hypoglycemia defined as a plasma glucose concentration below or equal 70mg/dl with or without symptoms
Glucose Area Under the Curve (AUC)
Measurements based on Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)
Mean amplitude of glycaemic excursion (MAGE)
MAGE will be defined as a standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG) obtained from all blood glucose concentrations
Capillary blood glucose level 30,60,120,150,180 min after administration of the prandial bolus
measured by SMBG
Glycemic rise (GR)
a difference between baseline and the maximum glucose value based on CGMS
Peak glucose level (PG)
the maximum value of glycemia during 3 hours of postmeal time based on CGMS
Time to glucose peak
based on CGMS
Time in postprandial glucose range between 70 to 180 mg/dl (4.0-10.0 mmol/L)
based on CGMS

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
