The most common forms of diabetes treated are: Type 1 diabetes (autoimmune disease in children and adolescents) Type 2 diabetes We offer all modern forms of therapy, e.g. Use of all insulins as indicated, incl. all insulin analogues, conventional and intensified insulin therapy, continuous subcutaneous insulin injection (insulin pump), continuous blood glucose monitoring. Tests for diabetes-associated diseases (other autoimmune diseases, celiac disease, etc.) as well as diabetes-specific secondary diseases complete the spectrum. Our treatment goal is to promote the independence of small and large patients and their families in dealing with the disease. Therefore, in addition to outpatient and inpatient diabetes training courses for patients and their parents, we also regularly offer blood sugar readjustments, nutritional advice and advice on how to exercise. Our psychologist also offers children and parents the opportunity for discussions and advice. We regularly hold training courses for educators and teachers in order to enable good care of the children in everyday life. In Förderverein eV sugar light at the Klinikum Leverkusen, parents, doctors, pediatric nurses and diabetes assistants committed to ensuring that children and adolescents with diabetes can grow up as carefree as possible. The association organizes information, sport and leisure events for children, young people and their families. In an emergency, our patients or their parents can call a doctor for pediatric diabetology around the clock. The clinic is certified as a treatment facility for children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes by the German Diabetes Society and participates in DPV quality assurance.
