Summary

Type 1 diabetes is the most common endocrine disorder in children and adolescents. It is characterised by a deficiency in insulin synthesis and requires daily insulin injections to manage glucose levels. Therefore, there are numerous medical approaches to its therapy, such as levels of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) as a marker of glycaemic control during the last 3 months and monitoring of blood glucose levels, influencing the mental health and the quality of life of the patient and family. Hens, the importance of the psychological adjustment to children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes besides insulin injection, adequate diet and regular exercise rises, in order to maintain stable psychological status and functional mental health, and prevent psychological disorders such as anxiety, depression and sleep disorders. Approaching the comorbidity in these children and adolescents starts with the diagnosis and with the health changes in all aspects.
