Simple versus precise carbohydrate counting with insulin pumps in teenagers

This trial is testing a simpler way to give insulin at mealtimes for teenagers using hybrid closed-loop insulin pump systems. Instead of counting carbohydrates precisely at every meal, you would choose whether your meal is small, medium, or large, and the pump would deliver a preset insulin dose. The study will compare how well your blood sugar control works with this simplified approach versus the traditional method of counting carbohydrates.

Many people find carbohydrate counting difficult and stressful, which can make it hard to use insulin pumps effectively. This trial exists to see whether a simpler dosing method could help more people manage their diabetes successfully while still keeping their blood sugar in a healthy range.
