- Original description
More and more children and adolescents are using diabetes devices attached to the skin. The attachment of infusions sets to the skin provoke allergenic or toxic eczema, the continous infusion of insulin provoke subcutaneous changes and prolonged wear time seems to increase the risk of these complication. On the other site fewer skin stripping episodes with longer wear time and filtration of the insulin may be beneficial for the skin, therefore comparing the occurrence of subcutaneous hyper echogenicity, eczema and the skin barrier in users of 3 and 7 days infusions set is highly relevant. The primary aim of present study is to investigate if the use of three days insulin infusion set is superior to seven days in preventing the occurrence of hyperechogenicity in areas recently used for insulin infusion and if the type of insulin matter comparing insulin aspart - Novo Rapid, or insulin lispro - HumalogRead full original descriptionShow less
A Randomized Controlled Trial Testing the Influence of Three- and Seven-days Insulin Infusions and Two Types of Insulin on Hyperechogenicity in Subcutis and Glycemic Variables in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes
More and more children and adolescents are using diabetes devices attached to the skin. The attachment of infusions sets to the skin provoke allergenic or toxic eczema, the continous infusion of insulin provoke subcutaneous changes and prolonged wear time seems to increase the risk of these complication. On the other site fewer skin stripping episodes with longer wear time and filtration of the insulin may be beneficial for the skin, therefore comparing the occurrence of subcutaneous hyper echogenicity, eczema and the skin barrier in users of 3 and 7 days infusions set is highly relevant. The primary aim of present study is to investigate if the use of three days insulin infusion set is superior to seven days in preventing the occurrence of hyperechogenicity in areas recently used for insulin infusion and if the type of insulin matter comparing insulin aspart - Novo Rapid, or insulin lispro - Humalog

Exclusion: Those who are unable to read and understand Danish; Those with impaired cognitive development that may interfere with the ability to answer questionnaires in Danish and/or be reached by phone or videocall.
