About this trial
This is an interventional prevention trial for Type 1 Diabetes focused on measuring Type 1 diabetes, Continuous Glucose Monitoring, Nocturnal Hypoglycemia

- Type 1 diabetes diagnosed at least 1 year prior to study entry
- Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion pump for at least 3 month prior to study entry
- Use of continuous glucose measurement device for at least one month prior to study entry
- Age: 4-24 years old
- HbA1c < =8.5%
- No more than one severe hypoglycemia or an episode diabetic ketoacidosis within the year prior to study entry, and none within the month prior to study entry.
- Capable of reading a pump screen in English
- Capable of operating the MDRS software
- A patient older than 18 years- leaving routinely with at least one more adult(age above 18 years) capable of connecting the C&C center and properly reacting to the instructions given by the attending personal.
- A patient younger than 18 years- leaving routinely with at least two adults (age above 18 years) capable of connecting the C&C center and properly reacting to the instructions given by the attending personal.
- All participants must provide an adult independent contact person, leaving near by the participant, capable of connecting the C&C center and properly reacting to the instructions given by the attending personal. This person will be called into action in emergency cases in which the participant or his household members can not be reached.
- Capable of completing the hypoglycemia the relevant surveys
- Able to understand and sign an informed consent forms
Exclusion Criteria:

Active Comparator
MDRS system
Continuous Glucose Monitoring
Participants will be using the MDRS system combined with their regular treatment with Continuous Glucose Monitoring during nightime for 2 weeks. The MDRS will allow the supervising personal to get real time remote data of glucose level and to alarm the patients and intervene in cases such as pending hypoglycemia, long standing hyperglycemia or technical faults
Participants will be using their regular Continuous Glucose Monitoring during nightime for 2 weeks, without using the MDRS remote control system
