Download or read book GLYCAEMIC VARIABILITY AND TIME IN RANGE IN TYPE 1 DIABETES PATIENTS ON REAL TIME CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORING AND INSULIN INJECTIONS VERSUS SENSOR AUGMENTED INSULIN PUMP THERAPY written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background and aims. The aim of the study was to compare glycaemic variability and time in different glycaemic ranges in patients with type 1 (T1DM) using real time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) versus the patients using sensor-augmented pump therapy (SAP).Material and Methods. All the T1DM patients using real time CGM in a single center were evaluated in a cross-sectional study. Fourteen days of data from CGM and/or pump downloads were analysed. Different glycaemic variability measures were obtained. Percentage of TIR (70-180 mg/dl), time 54 mg/dl, 70 mg/dl, 180 mg/dl, 250 mg/dl and >300 mg/dl were calculated. A comparison between the group on MDI (CGM-MDI) and the group on SAP was performed.Results. 180 patients were included. No differences between the CGM-MDI group (n=70) and the SAP group (n=110) were found in age (42u00b114 vs 40u00b19.2 years, p=0.4), diabetes duration (20u00b112 vs 23u00b111 years, p=0.2), or baseline HbA1c before CGM (7.4u00b11.1% vs 7.4u00b10.8%, p=0.9). In the SAP group, female sex was more prevalent (63% vs 36%, p=0.001) and median duration of CGM was longer (25 [12-40] vs 11 [4-28] months, p=0.001). 87% (n=96) of the patients in the SAP group used low-glucose or predictive low-glucose suspend functions. Differences between both groups are shown in Table 1. Conclusion. Similar outcomes regarding glycaemic variability and time in normo- and hyperglycaemic range can be achieved with real time CGM and multiple daily insulin injections and with sensor-augmented pump. Sensor-augmented pump therapy provides greater protection against hypoglycaemia.

Book Insulin Pumps and Continuous Glucose Monitoring

Download or read book Insulin Pumps and Continuous Glucose Monitoring written by Francine R. Kaufman and published by American Diabetes Association. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being diagnosed with diabetes, no longer means giving up an active life. New technology, such as insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors, can help people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes stay active and flexible and maintain healthy attitudes and lifestyles. Designed to mimic the action of the pancreas, insulin pumps are small, pager-sized devices that infuse insulin under the skin based on programmed rates. Not only does this eliminate the need for injections, it also allows for small amounts of insulin to to be released throughout the day, and large amounts to be administered at meals based on what's being eaten. When paired with a continuous glucose monitor, which provides a continuous readout of glucose levels, users can enjoy accurate, tight glucose control that provides much greater flexibility and freedom than the old check-and-inject method. Dr. Francine Kaufman's Insulin Pumps and Continuous Glucose Monitoring explains the advances in glucose management, and thoroughly discusses the technology, as well as the physical and psychological aspects of diabetes care. It provides a comprehensive medical approach toward diabetes management and pump therapy with an appreciation of the real-life challenges and frustrations faced every day by people with diabetes.

Book Personalized Predictive Modeling in Type 1 Diabetes

Download or read book Personalized Predictive Modeling in Type 1 Diabetes written by Eleni I. Georga and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personalized Predictive Modeling in Diabetes features state-of-the-art methodologies and algorithmic approaches which have been applied to predictive modeling of glucose concentration, ranging from simple autoregressive models of the CGM time series to multivariate nonlinear regression techniques of machine learning. Developments in the field have been analyzed with respect to: (i) feature set (univariate or multivariate), (ii) regression technique (linear or non-linear), (iii) learning mechanism (batch or sequential), (iv) development and testing procedure and (v) scaling properties. In addition, simulation models of meal-derived glucose absorption and insulin dynamics and kinetics are covered, as an integral part of glucose predictive models. This book will help engineers and clinicians to: select a regression technique which can capture both linear and non-linear dynamics in glucose metabolism in diabetes, and which exhibits good generalization performance under stationary and non-stationary conditions; ensure the scalability of the optimization algorithm (learning mechanism) with respect to the size of the dataset, provided that multiple days of patient monitoring are needed to obtain a reliable predictive model; select a features set which efficiently represents both spatial and temporal dependencies between the input variables and the glucose concentration; select simulation models of subcutaneous insulin absorption and meal absorption; identify an appropriate validation procedure, and identify realistic performance measures. Describes fundamentals of modeling techniques as applied to glucose control Covers model selection process and model validation Offers computer code on a companion website to show implementation of models and algorithms Features the latest developments in the field of diabetes predictive modeling

Book Advances in Artificial Pancreas Systems

Download or read book Advances in Artificial Pancreas Systems written by Ali Cinar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brief introduces recursive modeling techniques that take account of variations in blood glucose concentration within and between individuals. It describes their use in developing multivariable models in early-warning systems for hypo- and hyperglycemia; these models are more accurate than those solely reliant on glucose and insulin concentrations because they can accommodate other relevant influences like physical activity, stress and sleep. Such factors also contribute to the accuracy of the adaptive control systems present in the artificial pancreas which is the focus of the brief, as their presence is indicated before they have an apparent effect on the glucose concentration and so can be more easily compensated. The adaptive controller is based on generalized predictive control techniques and also includes rules for changing controller parameters or structure based on the values of physiological variables. Simulation studies and clinical studies are reported to illustrate the performance of the techniques presented.

Download or read book SENSOR AUGMENTED PUMP WITH PREDICTED LOW GLUCOSE SUSPEND FUNCTION SHORT AND MEDIUM TERM OUTCOMES IN YOUNG CHILDREN written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION: Sensor augmented pump therapy with SmartGuard function (SAP-SmartGuard) has demonstrated a reduction in the risk of hypoglycemia. Pediatric studies are mainly short-term, do not reflect anthropometric impact.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate, in our pediatric population with diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1), the effect of SAP-SmartGuard on glycemic control, hypoglycemia and anthropometrics.MATERIAL AND METHODS:Retrospective observational study of patients with DM1 in treatment with SAP-SmartGuard. We analyzed at the beginning and every 6 months: weight, height, BMI, growth rate (GR), HbA1c, insulin dose and bolus number. We collected CGM data from the first month and then every 6 months: mean glucose (MG), mean standard deviation of glucose (SDMG), mean time in suspension on u201clowu201d and u201cbefore lowu201d. Statistical analysis with the SPSSv19.0 program.RESULTS:16 patients (62.5% males). At baseline: age: 5.8 (3.8) years [mean (SD)], mean DM1 evolution: 2.2 (1.6) years. Previous treatment with ISCI: 37.5%.We found a reduction of the MG (p=0.03), of the SDMG, and of the AUC>140 mg / dl (p=0.043). Bolus number increased (p=0.02) and the % of the basal dose was reduced (p=0.05) without changes in the total insulin dose. Regarding anthropometric parameters, the BMI decreased (p=0.019) and the GR increased (p=0.012). (Table1)CONCLUSIONS:Among our patients, the SAP-SmartGuard allows to reduce the BMI and improve the growth rate. Time in hypoglycemia is minimal since the beginning of SAP-SmartGuard, and there is a progressive improvement in the measures of hyperglycemia and variability, without significant changes in HbA1c.

  • Author : Gary Scheiner
  • Publisher : American Diabetes Association
  • Release : 2015-05-06
  • ISBN : 1580406262
  • Pages : 130 pages

Download or read book Practical CGM written by Gary Scheiner and published by American Diabetes Association. This book was released on 2015-05-06 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use of real-time continuous glucose monitors among people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes is growing rapidly and should continue to grow until an artificial pancreas is brought to market. Likewise, use of professional systems in healthcare practices is expanding. But, other than manufacturer instructional manuals and some book chapters on CGMs, there are no standalone publications available with concise, non-commercial instructions on CGM prescription and use. Additionally, continuous glucose monitors are too often not used to their full and proper potential. This leaves users with suboptimal glucose control and can result in system abandonment. To address this, diabetes educator and author Gary Scheiner has created Practical CGM: Improving Patient Outcomes through Continuous Glucose Monitoring to give healthcare providers the skill to make more effective use of the data generated by continuous glucose monitors, in both real-time and on a retrospective analytic basis. Using a plain-language approach and distilling content to concise, practical tips and techniques, Scheiner has created a guide that will help practitioners optimize patient use of CGM systems and, ultimately, improve glucose control and patient health outcomes.
