Adherence Intervention to Promote Optimal Use of Insulin Pumps in Adolescents
The overall objective of this study is to address the critical need of improving insulin pump
adherence in adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) by providing personalized intervention
using evidence-based techniques during routine diabetes clinic visits at point of care.
adherence in adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) by providing personalized intervention
using evidence-based techniques during routine diabetes clinic visits at point of care.
To achieve optimal use of the insulin pump, patients must engage in frequent Blood Glucose
Monitoring (BGM) and insulin bolusing, and have an understanding of their relationship. BGM
must occur and then it must be followed by a decision about what to do (or not do) regarding
insulin bolusing. If insulin bolusing occurs in the absence of BGM, hypoglycemia and less
than ideal glycemic control can occur. Of the few insulin pump adherence studies, only very
basic adherence behaviors such as BGM and insulin bolusing frequency or number of
hypoglycemic events have been reported.
