Brief Summary:
Background: Achieving glycemic control without risking hypoglycemia imposes a major challenge in the management of toddlers and preschool children with Type 1 diabetes(T1D). Optimal insulin therapy for young children with T1D should provide effective glycemic control while minimizing the risk of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Despite the advantages of the basal-bolus insulin regimens, hypoglycemia still presents a major barrier in achieving desirable glycemic control. Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of insulin degludec to insulin glargine and NPH in toddlers and preschool children with T1D in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1C) and frequency of hypoglycemic episodes.
