Summary

The aim of the study is to see how glycaemic control and glycaemic variability affect levels of HIF, VEGF, erythropoietin and cortisol in Paediatric Type 1 diabetics on insulin pump therapy.

DEVICE

Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) and Telemedicine (Enlite Guardian real-time system Medtronic®)

Phase 2 patients will receive 6 weeks of CGM (Enlite Guardian real-time system- Medtronic®). Optimisation of glycaemic control will be through a telemedicine system to deliver a standardised protocol to instruct changes in pump settings and insulin delivery rate. This has been devised in our department and used successfully in a clinical trial comparing MDI v. CSII in young people, sponsored by Diabetes UK. 2008-2010). Subjects will be contacted at 1, 3 and 5 weeks after starting the CGM
