In today's episode, taken from live recordings at PREMIER 2024, we dive into an increasingly common treatment for type 1 diabetes: hybrid closed loop insulin pumps. We'll begin with a brief overview of traditional insulin pumps and explain how hybrid closed loops are different. The core of our discussion will be centered around three case studies, illustrating potential scenarios you might encounter in a pediatric emergency department and how to manage them effectively.
With NICE's recent technology appraisal advocating for universal access to hybrid closed loop systems for all type 1 diabetes patients, it's crucial to understand these devices. Over the next few years, you'll likely encounter these systems frequently. We'll cover the essentials of how these pumps work, their benefits, and potential issues that might arise, such as connectivity problems, cannula issues, and handling intercurrent illnesses.
Join us as we explore the revolutionary impact of hybrid closed-loop systems, which offer better glucose control and significantly improve the quality of life for those with type 1 diabetes.
Dr Nicola Trevelyan has been the Clinical Lead for the Paediatric Diabetes Service in Southampton for the last 20 years. During this time, she has seen huge changes in the management of CYP with diabetes. She has been involved in several large multicentre trials for paediatric diabetes, helping to better our understanding of how best to use new technologies in diabetes management in children and move forward access to new treatment technologies. She was one of the founding committee members for the Assoc of Children's Diabetes Clinicians (ACDC) in 2006 and has been on working parties for BSPED helping evidence base and re-write the national DKA guidelines in 2020 and for the National Paediatric Diabetes Audit.
