First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether an AI-powered educational platform can help parents of children with type 1 diabetes count carbohydrates more accurately and manage diabetes better. About 80 parents will either use the AI platform plus usual care or usual care alone for 12 weeks. The goal is to see if the tool is easy to use and improves confidence and blood sugar outcomes.
