Deskripsi

Impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia (IAH) is a risk for severe hypoglycaemia in insulin treatment of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Here the authors report that a group programme focussing on changing cognitive barriers to avoiding hypoglycaemia (HARPdoc) does not reduce severe hypoglycaemia more than a programme focussing on behaviours (BGAT) in a randomized control trial in adults with T1D and treatment-resistant IAH and severe hypoglycaemia.
