An observational study of T1DM, run by Assaf-Harofeh Medical Center.
Trial summary
Background: The use of insulin pumps in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes(T1D) has expanded, with lack of data comparing between the different devices.

About this study
Background: The use of insulin pumps in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes(T1D) has expanded, with lack of data comparing between the different devices.
Objective: to compare prospectively glycemic control, technical difficulties and quality of life (QOL) between 3 pump devices during the first year of use .
Methods: a prospective observational trial, based on clinical data retrieved during 12 months of follow- up. Inclusion criteria included T1D patients, ages 1-18 years, who started pump therapy as part of their clinical care in 4 university affiliated medical centers. The devices fully reimbursed by national health insurance are: MiniMed™ 640G , MiniMed® Veo™, Animas® Vibe®, and Abbott Omnipod®. Comparison parameters included quality of life (QOL), frequency of technical difficulties, skin reactions, discontinuation rate, glycated hemoglobin (HBA1C), mean glucose, total daily insulin dose (TDD) , pump setting parameters and BMI.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Observation group | Individuals with T1D ages 0-20 years who switched management modality from MDI to pump as part of their clinical care and were followed up prospectively in the next 12 months. |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Technical difficulties differences
All patients were asked 5 questions regarding monthly frequency of technical problems including the need to use extra sets and the level of pain at catheter insertion
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Quality Of Life (QOL)
QOL assessment was performed utilizing The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaires (DTSQ) for teens and for parents, separately [14]. The teens DTSQ contained 12 items scores on six-point scales, of which 9 were summed, the parents DTSQ contained 14 items, of which 9 were summed. Maximal grade was 42.
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Skin reactions differences
skin assessment at the pump insertion site (itching and redness).
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Discontinuation rate differences
Comparison between constant pump users and those who discontinued
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Secondary outcomes (5)
Glycemic control and metabolic parameters differences: Insulin TDD
The difference in glycemic control parameters and metabolic parameters after 3, 6 and 12 months of follow up, between the pumps devices. Insulin TDD, as reported by pump printout data
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Glycemic control and metabolic parameters differences: HbA1c%
The difference in HbA1c% as measured by each center ll local lab.
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Glycemic control and metabolic parameters differences:Glucose Mean & SD
Glucose Mean \& SD as recorded by SMBG
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Glycemic control and metabolic parameters differences:Number of SMBG per day
Data derived from data recorded by SMBG
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment
Glycemic control and metabolic parameters differences:BMI SDS
according to Center for Disease Control (CDC) growth charts scale
Measured: 2 years from patient first enrollment

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of T1DM, run by Assaf-Harofeh Medical Center.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Technical difficulties differences (time frame: 2 years from patient first enrollment). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Oct 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
