AI-Powered diabetes coach could replace some doctor visits

Summary
This study tested a software called DreaMed Advisor Pro that automatically analyzes blood sugar and insulin pump data to suggest insulin dose adjustments. About 100 people with type 1 diabetes (ages 6-30) were split into two groups: one received recommendations directly from the software, the other followed standard care with their doctor. The goal was to see if the software could safely and effectively manage blood sugar levels without a doctor's review.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Subject with type 1 diabetes (\>1 yr diagnosis) 2. Age- 6-30 years old 3. HbA1c equals or above 7% and equals or below 10% 4. Insulin infusion pump CSII (Continuous Subcutaneous Inulin Infusion) therapy for at least 4 months and current treatment with one of the following pumps: Omnipod Insulet (Bedford, MA), Medtronic Minimed Veo insulinPump (MMT-754, MMT-554), Medtronic 640G or Animas. 5. BMI below 30 kg/m\^2 6. Patients willing to follow study instructions (willing to measure capillary blood glucose as required by their glucose sensor for calibration and use the bolus- calculator feature of the pump) 7. Patients are required to have minimum computer skills and understanding of navigating the internet. 8. Patients are required to know basic English. 9. Patients willing to use glucose sensor for study duration. 10. Patients will have to have a smartphone (Apple or Android) or PC with email account. Exclusion Criteria: 1. An episode of diabetic ketoacidosis within the month prior to study entry 2. Any significant diseases/ conditions including psychiatric disorders and substance abuse that in the opinion of the investigator is likely to affect the subject's ability to complete the study or compromise patient's safety. 3. Current participation in any other interventional study. 4. Known or suspected allergy to trial products such as adhesives, tapes, needles. 5. Female subject who is pregnant or lactating or planning to become pregnant within the planned study duration 6. Severe hypoglycemia within six months prior to enrollment as defined by the ADA and Endocrine society as follows: Severe hypoglycaemia is an event requiring assistance of another person (due to change in mental status) to actively administer carbohydrates, glucagon, or take othe corrective actions. 7. Current use of the following medications: medications that are use to lower blood glucose such as Pramlintide, Metformin and GLP-1 analogs. Beta blockers, glucocorticoids and other medications, which in the judgment of the investigator would be a contraindication to participation in the study. 8. Hypoglycemia unawareness 9. Relevant severe organ disorders (diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic foot syndrome) or any secondary disease or complication of diabetes mellitus. * Subject has unstable or rapidly progressive renal disease or is receiving dialysis. * Subject has active proliferative retinopathy. * Active gastroparesis 10.
