Brief Summary

The risk of hypoglycemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes increases considerably during exercise. As a result, many patients with type 1 diabetes experience fear of and reluctance to pursue physical activity, in order to avoid the discomforting symptoms associated with hypoglycemia. The bi-hormonal artificial pancreas, a device used for automatic delivery of insulin and glucagon subcutaneously to subjects with type 1 diabetes, is paving the way to revolutionize the management of this disease. The investigator's group has recently completed a study of the bi-hormonal artificial pancreas system during exercise, suggesting reduced hypoglycemia around the exercise period. In order to prepare for a future home study, the ability to detect, grade, and classify physical activity so as to appropriately adjust system parameters is vital in helping to prevent exercise induced hypoglycemia in the home setting. This study is designed to collect 3-axis accelerometry data and heart rate data during a variety of different home activities, as well as during formal exercise in both healthy subjects and subjects with type 1 diabetes. Additionally, the investigators will observe the change in glucose levels before and after exercise in subjects with type 1 diabetes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean Change in Sensor Glucose in Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes

    The mean change in sensor glucose before and after both exercise periods (aerobic and resistance) during the study visit, obtained from Dexcom G4 sensors in the subjects with type 1 diabetes.

    4 hours

Study Arms (2)

Aerobic First, Resistance Second

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will complete three 15 minute periods of aerobic exercise, with 10 minute recovery between each period. This will be followed by 5-15 minute periods of up to 7 activities of daily living with an additional 20 minute period of resistance exercise, such as straight leg raises.

Behavioral: Aerobic ExerciseBehavioral: Resistance Exercise

Resistance First, Aerobic Second

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will complete 5-15 minute periods of up to 7 activities of daily living with an additional 20 minute period of resistance exercise, such as straight leg raises. This will be followed by three 15 minute periods of aerobic exercise, with 10 minute recovery between each period.

Behavioral: Aerobic ExerciseBehavioral: Resistance Exercise

Interventions

Exercise for three 15 minute periods, with 10 minute rests between each period, and exercise intensity will vary between periods to achieve different energy expenditures, which may be determined based on VO2 measurements.

Aerobic First, Resistance SecondResistance First, Aerobic Second

Subjects will perform 5-15 minutes of up to 7 different activities of daily living, followed by 20 minutes of resistance exercise, such as straight leg raises.

  • Willingness to sign informed consent and HIPAA documents.

You may not qualify if:

  • i. Seizure disorder. j. Active foot ulceration. k. Severe peripheral arterial disease characterized by ischemic rest pain or severe claudication. l. Major surgical operation within 30 days prior to screening. m. Use of an investigational drug within 30 days prior to screening. n. Chronic usage of any immunosuppressive medication (such as cyclosporine, azathioprine, sirolimus, or tacrolimus). o. Bleeding disorder, treatment with warfarin, or platelet count below 50,000. p. Current administration of oral or parenteral corticosteroids. q. Any life threatening disease, including malignant neoplasms and medical history of malignant neoplasms within the past 5 years prior to screening (except basal and squamous cell skin cancer). r. Any concurrent illness, other than diabetes, that is not controlled by a stable therapeutic regimen. s. Beta blockers or non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers. t. A positive response to any of the questions from the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire, see Appendix A. u. Any chest discomfort with physical activity, including pain or pressure, or other types of discomfort. v. Any clinically significant disease or disorder which in the opinion of the Investigator may jeopardize the subject's safety or compliance with the protocol.
