Brief Summary:
Study of blood sugars in the children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM), who are given insulin detemir and a rapid acting insulin (aspart). It is hypothesized that there is no difference in the patterns of blood sugars when detemir is given in the same syringe or in separate syringes with rapid acting insulin.
Detailed Description:
One of the barriers to good glycemic control in children with type 1 diabetes is multiple daily insulin injections. Mixing rapid-acting (detemir) and slow- acting insulins (aspart) in the same syringe would decrease the number of injections and may improve adherence
This study hypothesized that slow-acting insulin detemir mixed with aspart would have equivalent effects on blood glucose versus giving them as separate injections in children with type 1 diabetes.
Eighteen pediatric subjects with type 1 diabetes (11 males and 7 females) were recruited. However only 14 subjects completed this 20-day, randomized, crossover, and open-labeled study. The subjects were randomly assigned to either Study A (both insulin detemir and rapid acting insulin (RAI)) or Study B (either detemir or aspart) for the first 10 days. They were then crossed over for the last 10 days. Each subject underwent 72 h of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) during the last 72 h, for both Study A and Study B.Data of 48 h from midnight of the 1st day to mid- night of the 3rd day of the 72-h (CGM) were used for analysis to ensure the same starting and ending times of monitoring for all subjects.Sustained glucose values over time were calculated as area under the curve (AUC), index of blood glucose control as M-value and glucose excursion as mean amplitude of glucose excursion (MAGE)
