We found that most participants (79.3%) who learn ACC, at onset or later, continue to use the method. A higher level of empowerment was associated with lower HbA1c (p = 0.021), making patient empowerment an important factor in achieving optimal glycemic outcomes. No associations were found between ACC and empowerment or glycemic outcomes. A mixed strategy, only using ACC sometimes when insulin dosing for meals, was associated with the lowest empowerment score and highest HbA1c and should warrant extra education and support from the diabetes team to reinforce a dosing strategy.]]> Wed 28 Feb 2024 15:45:32 AEDT ]]> ISPAD Clinical Practice Consensus Guidelines 2018: nutritional management in children and adolescents with diabetes https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33671 Thu 27 Jan 2022 15:56:16 AEDT ]]>
