Insulin-based Strategies to Prevent Hypoglycemia During Two Types of Exercise (RIDE-2)
Regular exercise is associated with many health benefits for individuals with type 1 diabetes. However, immediate and delayed exercise-induced hypoglycemia is frequent and thus the main limiting factor for physical activity practice in this population. To reduce the risk of exercise-induced hypoglycemia, two types of adjustments may be considered by patients with type 1 diabetes : pre-meal insulin-dose reduction and carbohydrate supplements. Few evidence-based recommendations are available for patients using insulin pump to adjust insulin doses in order to limit exercise-induced hypoglycemia. The objective of this study is to address the magnitude of the needed reduction during two types of frequently practiced exercise (continuous vs. interval exercise) known to have a different impact on blood glucose reduction.
