Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) Management with Few Blood Glucose (BG) Measurements but Frequent Free Adjustment of Treatment with Cell Phones or E-mails

Bibal Cecile , Laure Castell Anne , Aboumrad Brigitte , Lucchini Philippe , Bougneres Pierre

Background: Many children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are asked to measure blood glucose (BG) 4–6 times a day routinely to adjust insulin dosages. There is no evidence though that such high frequency is beneficial to HbA1C or glycemic profile, although this is often claimed.Objectives: We challenged ‘the more BG measurements, the better control’ dogma for alleviation of T1D burden in child life and evaluation of HbA1C.<p class="abstext"...
