Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Determine the mean value for the slop between the variables of total daily dose versus total basal dose.
Two weeks
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Determine the slope between the other variables: weight, total daily dose, total basal dose, insulin correction carbohydrate rate, correction factor
Two weeks
Interventions
Continuous glucose sensor will be inserted. Subject will be on an isocaloric diet and CGM downloaded daily. Insulin basal and bolus will be adjusted based upon treatment goals until goals reached
