Glycaemic Variability in Acute Stroke
Diabetes MellitusType 11 moreIncreased glycaemic variability is associated with worse outcome in patients with diabetes after acute stroke.
Contraception and Pregnancy in Diabetes Mellitus
Diabetes MellitusType 11 moreThis study seeks to expand upon and update this body of work. It will explore the knowledge and understanding women with diabetes have around pregnancy and conception, as well as establish how well prepared these women are for a pregnancy. Using this data, we will develop better services to inform women with diabetes about the contraception and pregnancy, as well inform the development of pre-conception counselling services for women with diabetes. If successful, we would anticipate seeing an improvement in performance in future National Diabetes in Pregnancy audits.
Hospitalized Children and Adolescent Patients With Type 1 Diabetes During the COVID-19 Pandemic...
Type 1 DiabetesCovid19Although reports showed that children with well controlled diabetes do not appear to have increased risk of infection with SARS-CoV-2, however data are scarce regarding the extent to which clinical and demographic data of patient could modify the outcome and severity of the disease. Additionally, the link between covid-19 and diabetes remains controversial.
BIOFLOW III Asia Registry Orsiro Stent System
Coronary Artery DiseaseMyocardial Ischemia1 moreCliflical evaluation of th' Orsiro LESS 10 diabetic subjects requiring coronary revasculariza t ion with Drug Eluting Stefl ts (DES) .880 subjects will be enrolled in this registry. The sample subjects size may be increased in order to reach the subgroup sizes (Small Vessel and AMI).
Feasibility Study of PID Versus MPC and HMS
Type 1 Diabetes MellitusThe goal of this proposed study is to explore the feasibility of using a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller versus an MPC (Model Predictive Control) controller algorithm in an artificial pancreas system, all other components and study design being equal. The study consists of an evaluation of either type of control algorithm as a part of the Artificial Pancreas (AP) device during two periods of 27.5-hour closed-loop control in a clinic environment (Sansum Diabetes Research Institute, Santa Barbara, CA) separated by a minimum of 5 days and a maximum of 2 weeks. The 27.5-hour period includes: 2 announced meals (dinner and breakfast of 65g and 50g CHO respectively) preceded with a dose of rapid-acting insulin equivalent to 100% bolus based on each subject's Insulin to Carbohydrate (I:C) ratio and 1 unannounced meal (lunch of 65g carbohydrates, same meal content as dinner); complete night from 12:00 am to 7:00 am. The goal is to demonstrate that the AP device is able to maintain the subject blood glucose within a safe range at all times.
Performance Study to Test the GlucoMen®Day System Using Intravascular and Subcutaneous Microdialysis...
Type 1 DiabetesOver the last years, a number of systems for continuous subcutaneous glucose monitoring have been marketed and are routinely used in patients with diabetes to obtain more detailed information about 24-hour glucose profiles. In the hospital, numerous factors influencing glycemic control and possibly leading to glucose excursions out of the desired range exist, e.g. interventions for which the patient has to remain fasting or medications such as corticosteroids or vasopressors. A reliable continuous glucose signal could help to observe levels of glycaemia not only at defined time-points but continuously, making it possible for physicians and nursing staff to better adjust antihyperglycemic therapy and to react before the patient is exposed to severe hypo- or hyperglycaemia. In the hospital setting, vascular access is granted in the majority of patients and could as well be used as an alternative site for continuous glucose monitoring. The aim of the present study is to assess accuracy of the glucose data obtained by means of an intravascular microdialysis-based CGM system against venous blood glucose reference measurements.
Lancing Device Comparison Study
Diabetes MellitusType 12 moreTo evaluate pain responses using the Aurora lancing device and Velvet 33g lancet compared to other common, commercially available lancing systems. Subjects will test the devices at a depth setting sufficient to provide enough blood volume to trigger the OneTouch® Ultra®Mini blood glucose meter using OneTouch® Ultra® blood glucose test strips from either the fingertip or alternate site testing.
An Observational Study in Patients Using NovoMix® 30 or Levemir® for Treatment of Type 1 or Type...
DiabetesDiabetes Mellitus3 moreThis trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to investigate efficacy and safety of NovoMix® 30 (biphasic insulin aspart 30) or Levemir® (insulin detemir) in subjects with type 1 or 2 diabetes mellitus.
Observational Study to Evaluate the Safety of Levemir® in Patients With Diabetes
DiabetesDiabetes Mellitus3 moreThis study is conducted in Europe. The aim of the study is to observe the safety of insulin detemir (Levemir®) in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients.
Web-based Support During Pregnancy and Early Motherhood in Women With Type 1 Diabetes (MODIAB-web)...
Diabetes Type 1Pregnancy1 moreThe aim is to investigate whether the implementation of a web-based support to women with type 1 diabetes during pregnancy and early motherhood can improve well-being and self management of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is associated with increased medical risks and increased psychosocial pressure in relation to childbearing. There is need for extended support from both health care professionals and peers. Web-based interventions can improve personal capacity and self-management in people with long- term illnesses but are not evaluated in childbearing women with type 1 diabetes. A web site prototype for full-size browsers and mobile devices has been developed through a participatory design by multidisciplinary researchers, health care professionals, experienced mothers with type 1 diabetes and web designers. In a randomised control study the developed web site offering information, communication with health care professionals, person-centred self-care diaries and online social community of included women, is provided to the intervention group in early pregnancy at admission to specialised antenatal clinics at six hospitals in Sweden. A control group will receive standard care (usual care). Total n = 160. Primary outcomes are Well-Being Questionnaire and Diabetes Empowerment Scale. The intervention offers proactive solutions for strengthening patients' decision making of diabetes in daily life during pregnancy and early motherhood, and is expected to increase their wellbeing, personal capacity and knowledge of diabetes.
