Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change of the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) signal of the thoracic region across the glycemic trajectory.
EIT signals will be collected at multiple frequencies between 50 kHz and 1 MHz from the thoracic region in euglycemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia using a multi-channel EIT measurement device.
5 hours
Secondary Outcomes (11)
Change of hypoglycemia symptoms across the glycemic trajectory.
5 hours
Voice parameters indicative of dysglycemia
5 hours
Change in cognitive performance across the glycemic trajectory.
5 hours
Change in cognitive performance across the glycemic trajectory.
5 hours
Performance of a machine learning model to detect dysglycemia from the above-mentioned signals (EIT, symptoms, voice, physiological signals) quantified as area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUROC).
5 hours
- +6 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
Controlled euglycemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia
OTHERInterventions
EIT measurements are collected in different glycemic states (euglycemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia). Venous blood glucose is measured using a gold-standard glucose analyzer.
Eligibility Criteria

You may not qualify if:
- Incapacity to give informed consent
- Contraindications to insulin aspart (NovoRapid®)
- Known allergies to adhesives of the EIT device (e.g., gel electrodes)
- Pregnancy, breast-feeding or lack of safe contraception
- Active heart, lung, liver, gastrointestinal, renal or psychiatric disease
- Patients with implantable electronic devices (e.g., pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD)) or thoracic metal implants
