First seen Nov 20, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study tests two simple devices to help children aged 6 to 12 with type 1 diabetes feel less pain and fear during insulin injections. One device, called Buzzy, uses cold and vibration to distract the nerves. The other, TickleFlex, is a soft cover for the insulin pen that makes the injection feel gentler. The goal is to see if these tools make daily shots more comfortable and improve kids' willingness to stick with their treatment.
