Steno Tech Survey Respondents
A cohort of individuals with type 1 diabetes treated with CSII at either SDCC or NOH participating in the Steno Tech Survey.

Other: Questionnaire-based survey
The online questionnaire-based survey is composed of multiple items including pre-coded (multiple choice) questions, dichotomous (yes/no) questions, rating scales and validated questionnaire scales to measure general and diabetes/insulin pump-specific behavior, psychological concepts and preferences. |
General Type 1 Diabetes Population
A cohort consisting of the entire population of people with type 1 diabetes in Denmark not included in the Steno Tech Survey cohort (ca. 25.000 individuals).
