Understanding hypo symptoms is crucial for self-managing T1D. New insights from the HypoCOMPaSS study show that structured education, insulin titration, and optimised monitoring can improve hypo awareness and reduce hypo severity acbrd.org.au/2024/08/06/can-…

They also show that changing how we think about hypo symptoms is also important. Seeing hypo symptoms as useful cues helps people to take action to prevent severe hypos. Awareness is key! #DiabetesAwareness #T1D #HealthTips

This recent review highlights that improving tech access (e.g. CGM and pump), in combination with diabetes education (e.g. symptom recognition and early management), can help reduce the incidence of type 1 diabetes-related emergencies. Link: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

It’s #NationalDiabetesWeek (14-20 July 2024) here in Australia. Usually, it's not so much a celebration, as a call to action. So, it's timely to reflect on the recent report from the Parliamentary Inquiry: The State of Diabetes Mellitus in Australia acbrd.org.au/2024/07/15/refl… #NDW24

The #UniteForTech focus during #NDW24 is a timely reminder that not everyone has access to tech. Many ppl w T1D live everyday with worries about hypos. If that is you, then HypoPAST may be for you. Take part in this research study today acbrd.org.au/hypopast-rct/
