associated with improvement in the recognition of severe<br />

hypoglycemia, in the counterregulatory hormone responses,<br />

or both (42,67-73). Structured educational and psychobehavioural<br />

programs (e.g. blood glucose awareness training)<br />

may help improve detection of hypoglycemia and reduce frequency<br />

of severe hypoglycemia (74,75).<br />

RECOMMENDATIONS<br />

Insulin regimens for type 1 diabetes<br />

1.To achieve glycemic targets in adults with type 1 diabetes,<br />

multiple daily insulin injections (prandial [bolus]<br />

and basal insulin) or the use of CSII as part of an intensive<br />

diabetes management regimen is the treatment of<br />

choice [Grade A, Level 1A (6)].<br />

2. Rapid-acting insulin analogues (aspart or lispro), in combination<br />

with adequate basal insulin, should be considered<br />

over regular insulin to improve A1C while<br />

minimizing the occurrence of hypoglycemia [Grade B,<br />

Level 2 (9,11)] and to achieve postprandial glucose targets<br />

[Grade B, Level 2 (76)].<br />

3. Insulin aspart or insulin lispro should be used when CSII<br />

is used in adults with type 1 diabetes [Grade B, Level 2<br />

(29,30)].<br />

4.A long-acting insulin analogue (detemir, glargine) may be<br />

considered as an alternative to NPH as the basal insulin<br />

[Grade B, Level 2 (17-20)] to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia<br />

[Grade B, Level 2 (50), for detemir; Grade C, Level<br />

3 (51), for glargine], including nocturnal hypoglycemia<br />

[Grade B, Level 2 (50), for detemir; Grade D, Consensus,<br />

for glargine].<br />

Hypoglycemia<br />

5.All individuals with type 1 diabetes should be counselled<br />

about the risk and prevention of insulin-induced hypoglycemia,<br />

and risk factors for severe hypoglycemia<br />

should be identified and addressed [Grade D, Consensus].<br />

6. In individuals with hypoglycemia unawareness, the following<br />

strategies should be implemented to reduce the<br />

risk of hypoglycemia and to attempt to regain hypoglycemia<br />

awareness:<br />

• Increased frequency of SMBG, including periodic<br />

assessment during sleeping hours [Grade D, Consensus].<br />

• Less stringent glycemic targets with avoidance of<br />

hypoglycemia [Grade C, Level 3 (72,73)].<br />

• Consideration of a psychobehavioural intervention<br />

program (blood glucose awareness training), if available<br />

[Grade B, Level 2 (75)].<br />
