Summary
The primary aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of single-administration low-dose glucagon and split-administration low-dose glucagon to placebo for prevention of exercise-induced hypoglycemia in people with type 1 diabetes using insulin pumps and multiple daily injections (MDI). The secondary aim is to compare the accuracy of three continuous glucose monitors (CGM) during and after exercise in inpatient and outpatient settings.Phase:
