Completed
Conditions
Type1diabetes
Registration Number
NCT04162067
Lead Sponsor
LMC Diabetes & Endocrinology Ltd.
Brief Summary

This retrospective study uses the Canadian LMC Diabetes Registry to describe the current health status of Canadians with type 1 diabetes. The study provides a detailed report of the demographic composition, treatment regimens, self-care approaches, health status, metabolic outcomes, and glycemic control of a large Canadian community-based, specialist-led cohort of patients with type 1 diabetes. Specific study outcomes will also be evaluated in a subgroup of patients using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) therapy.
