Supportive Role

Achieving normal or near-normal glycemic control as reflected by HbA1c levels in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is important for preventing the development and progression of chronic complications. Despite delineation and dissemination of HbA1c management targets and advances in insulin pharmacology, insulin delivery systems, and glucose monitoring, the majority of children with T1D do not achieve HbA1c goals. In particular, African Americans are more likely not to reach HbA1c goals and have persistently higher HbA1c than Non-Hispanic Whites. Availability of pumps and other technology has not eliminated the disparity in HbA1c. Multiple factors play a role in the persisting racial disparity in HbA1c outcome. The carefully designed application and deployment of new technology to help the patient/family and facilitate the supportive role of the diabetes management team may be able to overcome racial disparity in glycemic outcome and improve patient quality of life.

Diabetes Technology

Glycemic control represents an integral part of diabetes mellitus (DM) therapy. It is not surprising that diabetes technology is evolving to not only create new routes of insulin administration, but also to improve the measurement of glycemia. A significant number of new glucose monitoring systems have been launched to the market over the past 10 years. Nevertheless, only 30% of patients with type 1 diabetes and very few patients with type 2 diabetes use continuous or flash glucose monitoring. The reason for this is not only the cost and technical difficulties of continuous glucose monitoring, but also its clinical appropriateness. There is indisputable evidence that patients who receive intensified insulin therapy, especially those with type 1 diabetes, need frequent self-monitoring / continuous glucose monitoring. As for patients with type 2 diabetes receiving basal insulin and / or other antihyperglycemic therapy, the data received seem to be contradictory and uncertain. However, most of the recommendations simmer down to the need for self-monitoring of blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. The diabetes technology section of the American Diabetes Association guidelines 2021 goes into details about the role of self-monitoring of blood glucose in diabetes management, including the need for continuous patient education on the principles and rules of self-monitoring, interpretation and practical use of the results of self-monitoring, various standards of glucometers, factors affecting the accuracy of the results.

Pediatric Diabetes

The outbreak of COVID-19 had created a significant impact on the medical community and has resulted in novel challenges to all the physicians. It is estimated by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) that in 2019 there were 95,600 cases of type 1 diabetes (0 and 14 years of age) in India. Type 1 diabetes was identified to be an independent risk factor associated with in-hospital death in COVID-19. During the pandemic, due to fear of visiting the hospitals, there was an underrepresentation of new cases and due to delay in the diagnosis, there was a spike in the number of cases of diabetic ketoacidosis. The objective of the current review is to summarize the role of telemedicine in the management of pediatric diabetes. Various organizations such as the Research Society of Study of Diabetes in India (RSSDI), CDiC, and IFAC came forward to support the pediatric diabetes community through the supply of insulin, glucose strips and syringes. The efficiency of telehealth visits was enhanced by using diabetes technologies like insulin pumps, CGMs, and bluetooth glucose meters. As children got ample time to spend with their parents and perform the in-home physical activity, they had good glycemic control during the pandemic period in some cases.
