Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time spent in the euglycemic range

    The mean difference in time spent in the euglycemic range (interstitial glucose \>3.9-\<10.0 mmol/L), expressed as hours/day between the two 16-week intervention periods, i.e. RT-CGM versus masked CGM in patients with T1DM and IHA.

    45 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Quality of life

    45 weeks

  • Glycemia variables

    45 weeks

  • Hypoglycemic episodes

    45 weeks

  • Changes in hypoglycemia awareness score

    45 weeks

Other Outcomes (6)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • T1DM, diagnosed according to ADA criteria regardless duration
  • Use of multiple daily injections of insulin (with a basal insulin injection and bolus injections) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion
  • Any HbA1c
  • Age between 18 and 70 years old (inclusive)
  • IHA according to the questionnaire by Gold et al.
  • Performing at least 3 SMBG/day or 21 SMBG/week

You may not qualify if:

  • History of (recent) major renal, liver, or (ischemic) heart disease (including cardiac conduction disorders)
  • Current untreated proliferative diabetic retinopathy
  • Current (treatment for) malignancy
  • Current use of non-selective beta-blockers
  • Current psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa
  • Substance abuse or alcohol abuse (men \>21 units/week, women \>14 units/week)
  • Current pregnancy or intention to conceive
  • Current use of RT-CGM other than for short term (i.e. diagnostic use or use shorter than 3 consecutive months)
  • Hearing or vision impairment hindering perceiving of glucose display and alarms, or otherwise incapable of using a (RT-)CGM, in the opinion of the investigator
  • Poor commandment of the Dutch language or any (mental) disorder that precludes full understanding of the purpose and instructions of the study
  • Participation in another clinical study
  • Known or suspected allergy to trial product or related products
