Brief Summary
This study will be prospective comparative trial comparing between insulin pumps vs Multiple daily injections (MDI) in treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in terms of health- related quality of life (HRQL) and efficacy of glycemic control (HbA1c level ) Hypothesis: Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune destruction of insulin-secreting pancreatic b cells leading to disturbed glucose regulation and overt hyperglycemia which leads to variable consequences and complication. Consequently, individuals with type 1 diabetes have a lifelong dependency on insulin replacement therapy. Aim of the Work: To compare the psychosocial impact of insulin pumps versus multiple daily injections in treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (Via questionnaire) in terms of health-related quality of life and efficacy of glycemic control (HbA1c level).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Confidence in diabetes self care questionnaire (CIDS)
the CIDS scale, assessment included HbA1c, emotional distress, fear of hypoglycemia, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and self-care behavior. The CIDS scale is a reliable and valid measure of diabetes-specific self-efficacy for use in patients with type 1 diabetes. High psychometric similarity allows for cross-cultural comparisons.

Evaluation of health-related quality of life (HRQL)
HRQL was measured by the Peds-QL 4.0 11,22. The 23-item Peds-QL 4.0 generic core scales encompass (a) physical functioning (eight items), (b) emotional functioning (five items), (c) social functioning (five items), and (d) school functioning (five items). The physical health summary score (eight items) is the same as the physical functioning scale. To create the psychosocial health summary score (15 items), the mean is computed as the sum of the items divided by the number of items answered in the emotional, social, and school functioning scales.
