Evaluation of Security and Efficacy of Medtrum Hybrid Closed Loop System

Overview

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the MEDTRUM Hybrid Closed Loop (HCL) System in children, adolescents, and adults with type 1 diabetes (7-75 years old) in a home setting and to test the function of meal announcement in an extend study.

The main question it aims to answer is :

• Is the Hybrid Closed Loop system superior at increasing the time spent in the target glucose range of 70-180 mg/dL when compared to the Open (manual) Loop system ?

Participants will be :

• Trained into the use of the Insulin pump MEDTRUM A8 TouchCare® Insulin Management system
• Randomized to the Open Loop or Closed Loop group
• Respond to self administered questionnaires : the Hypoglycaemia Fear Survey, the Diabetes Quality of Life Questionnaire, and the Diabetes treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire status

Researchers will compare the time spent in the target glucose range of 70-180 mg/mL during the last 12 weeks of the study between the patients randomised to the Open Loop group and those randomised to the Closed Loop group.
