['to evaluate the combination of insulin pump therapy and continuous glucose monitoring in outcome on metabolic control in patients with brittle type 1 diabetes.', 'Insulin pump therapy was initiated in eleven brittle type 1 diabetics with poor metabolic control (mean Hba1c = 9.6%). Metabolic control was evaluated with CGMS and HbA1c in the following 6 months.', 'Glycated haemoglobin showed a reduction in 1.4% in the 6 months following initialisation of pump therapy. Physical activity, various foods and insulin were tested with CGMS. There were no severe hypoglycaemia and occasional postprandial hyperglycaemia, where patients and their family learned the practical issues of carbohydrate counting. During the next 6 months on pump therapy, the patients successfully managed their diabetes.'] Does insulin pump therapy with continuous glucose monitoring improve metabolic control in brittle type 1 diabetes?
