Does attending a winter residential diabetic camp improve metabolic control in patients with Type 1 diabetes?
Attending the T1Diams winter residential diabetic camp in Mauritius is associated with improved glycaemic control and stabilisation of HbA1c in patients with Type 1 diabetes.
Introduction: Diabetic camps have become an integral part in the life of people with Type1 diabetes. The aim of this study is to prospectively evaluate the impact of a winter camp on the metabolic control of patients with Type 1 diabetes. Methods: relationship of sex, age, Body Mass Index (BMI), duration of diabetes, ratio of total dose of insulin per day to weight (iU/kg) and insulin regimen on hypoglycaemia (blood glucose<3.3mmol/l) and hyperglycaemia (blood glucose>11.1mmol/l) frequency determined. of after The relationship between of and Attending T1Diams winter residential diabetic camp is associated with improved glycaemic control and stabilisation of HbA1c. Our study showed that frequency of hypoglycaemia depends on sex whereas frequency of comparison among T1Diams camps. In any case, present day camping experiences are essential.

Pravesh Kumar Guness (2018) conducted an observational in Type 1 diabetes. Winter residential diabetes camp (T1Diams) was evaluated on Metabolic control (hypoglycaemia <3.3 mmol/l, hyperglycaemia >11.1 mmol/l, and HbA1c). Attending the T1Diams winter residential diabetes camp was associated with improved glycaemic control and HbA1c stabilisation in patients with Type 1 diabetes.
