THE Assesssment of PARAMETERS OF LONG-TERM METABOLIC control in children WITH DIABETES TYPE I using UNDERGOING different types of insulin THerapy and using different means of its introduction
Objective: to carry out comparative analysis of long-term compensation of carbohydrate metabolism in children with diabetes type 1 undergoing different types of insulin therapy and using different means of its introduction. Material and methods . We analyzed data of 77 medical histories of children with diabetes type 1. The patients were divided into 3 groups depending on the type of insulin and the way of its introduction. We analyzed both initial and current for the moment of the experiment parameters of glycosylated hemoglobin levels, frequency of blood glucose self-testing, presence of acute complications of diabetes mellitus. Results . The children undergoing continuous subcutaneous insulin introduction revealed significant decrease of glycosylated hemoglobin levels and absence of acute complications of diabetes. The group of children using insulin analogues for a long time had significantly lower glycemia variability and revealed no acute complications of diabetes. Conclusions . We revealed long-term compensation of carbohydrate metabolism in the children with diabetes type I who used insulin pump therapy.
