Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether the patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus in sub-optimal glycemic control can achieve better glycemic control by using the Medtronic MiniMed Paradigm® REAL-Time Pump System with continuous glucose monitoring versus the Medtronic MiniMed Paradigm® REAL-Time Pump alone with Self Monitoring Blood Glucose (SMBG).Our null hypothesis is there is a 0% reduction in HbA1c from baseline compared to control group, after 6 months of treatment.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Interventions

DEVICE

insulin pump with continuous glucose sensing (Paradigm Real-Time Insulin Pump System)

6 months of pump plus continuous glucose sensing in conjunction to SMBG

DEVICE

insulin pump and blinded continuous glucose sensing (Paradigm Real-Time insulin pump)

insulin pump with smbg to be worn for 6 months. 15 days in each 6 week period blinded continuous glucose sensing will be conducted.
