Summary

This study tests a digital tool that helps children under 12 with type 1 diabetes calculate their insulin doses. The tool considers factors like carbs, blood sugar levels, and trends. Researchers will compare blood sugar control (HbA1c) over 6 months between kids using the tool plus standard care and those receiving standard care alone. The goal is to see if the tool improves safety and glucose management.
