Performance of an Automated Insulin Delivery System in Youth With Type 1 Diabetes During a Diabetes Summer Camp

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Retrospective observational study

Authors' conclusion

Diabetes camps promote satisfactory glycemic control in youth with T1D, particularly when using AID systems. MiniMed 780G users maintained better outcomes even the week after camp compared to MiniMed 640G users.

Study context

Population
Children, adolescents and adult staff with T1D using MiniMed insulin pumps and CGM at six diabetes summer camp weeks, 2019–2025, Northern Greeceparticipants/year
Participants
93 children
Exposure
MiniMed 780G vs sensor-augmented MiniMed 640G
Outcome
TIR during camp week
Follow-up
Camp week
