Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to demonstrate safety and feasibility of a decision support system aimed at improving activity-related insulin boluses in Type 1 Diabetes.

Detailed Description

Subjects with Type 1 diabetes often need to adjust insulin boluses for activity since activity may increase the chance of hypoglycemia. The aims of this study is to make better bolus decisions by inte...
