No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not bedtime snacks are necessary to prevent overnight low blood glucose reactions (nocturnal hypoglycemia) in adults with type 1 diabetes who are using intensive insulin therapies, either multiple injections of insulin or insulin pump.

We hypothesize that a bedtime snack is not necessary if the bedtime insulin is very well adjusted and delivered, especially by use of insulin pump which is considered the "gold standard" for overnight blood glucose control.
