Rationale and methods for the Exercise for Type 1 Diabetes Education program: a pilot randomized controlled trial of an education program to support adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) to undertake exercise
Abstract:ObjectiveRegular exercise in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) can result in considerable improvements in health and reduction in cardiovascular events and death. However, a large proportion of people with T1DM are not active. Fear of hypoglycemia and lack of knowledge on how to manage their diabetes are major barriers to exercise in people with T1DM, but few patients receive specific advice about how to adjust insulin and carbohydrate for activity. Furthermore, healthcare professionals (HCP) current… Show more
“…59 A multicentre pilot RCT is investigating the efficacy and costeffectiveness of an education programme provided to people with type 1 diabetes to facilitate safe and effective exercise (registered as ISRCTN61403534 and ongoing). 60 Advances in hybrid, closedloop, artificial pancreas systems might enable safer exercise by avoiding hypoglycaemia through providing a better match between glucose concentrations and insulin administration.…”
