NCT06141629

Brief Summary

It it hypothesized that children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, who are counting carbohydrates can achieve better metabolic control by concurrent use of the Accu-Chek Aviva Expert. Additionally, it is proposed that carbohydrate counting in combination with the the Accu-Chek Aviva Expert will lead to better quality of life as a result of fewer restrictions when eating and less variation in blood glucose.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • better metabolic control as assessed by HbA1C

    We hypothesize that children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, who are counting carbohydrates can achieve better metabolic control as assessed by HbA1C.

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • better quality of life as assessed by Hvidore questionnaire

    12 months

  • better metabolic control as assessed by glucose variability

    12 months
