  2. Hypoglycemia in children with T1DM Studies in children and adults have demonstrated that the majority of severe hypoglycemic events occur at nightand suggest that such events are more frequent following days of increased physical activity

  3. Nocturnal hypoglycemia in children with T1DM • Limited data are available regarding the role of afternoon exercise on overnight severe hypoglycemic events in children with T1DM And • No studies to date have examined the impact of exercise on asymptomatic, biochemical hypoglycemia during the overnight period using rigorously controlled research protocols.

  4. The Diabetes Research in Children Network (DirecNet) is a multi-center study group whose objectives include the examination of factors that contribute to the risk of hypoglycemia and the development of strategies to prevent this complication of treatment of children with T1DM.

  5. Aim of present study • To examine the effect of late afternoon exercise that simulates common after- school sports activities on the frequency of overnight hypoglycemia. We hypothesizedthat such exercise would significantly increase the risk of nocturnal hypoglycemia compared to a sedentary day without afternoon exercise.

  6. Study subjects (n=50) • Female 44% • Caucasian 90% • Age (yrs: mean + SD) 15 ± 2 • Duration T1DM (yrs: mean + SD) 7 ± 4 • Pump 54% • MDI 46% • HbA1c (mean + SD) 7.8 ± 0.8%

  7. Study procedures • 2 CRC admissions 1-4 weeks apart • Conditions: • Same meals and basal and bolus insulin doses based on home regimen for sedentary day • Exercise or rest between 4-6PM • Glucose measurements • Q 15 min during exercise • Q 60 min from 6 PM to 10 PM • Q 30 min from 10 PM to 6 AM • Primary outcome: • Glucose level < 60 mg/dL

  8. Exercise protocol Five minute rest periods Treadmill Exercise Exercise Exercise Exercise 0 15 20 35 40 55 60 75 TIME (minutes) Exercise at 60% maximum effort (VO2max): Heart rate 140 beats/minute All subjects achieved target heart rate for all cycles except for one subject that missed target for one cycle only

  9. Glucose lowering effect of exercise

  10. Sedentary Exercise Mean glucose levels on the two study days Exercise Period 4:00 – 5:15 PM

  11. Percentage of patients experiencing nocturnal hypoglycemia (<60mg/dL) on exercise and sedentary nights Exercise night only Neither night 26% 46% Both nights 22% 6% Sedentary night only

  12. Nocturnal hypoglycemia by glucose level at bedtime 16/28=57% 12/22=55% Bedtime Glucose 8/22=36% 2/28=7%

  13. Summary • 63% of subjects with pre-exercise glucose of < 130mg/dL became hypoglycemic during exercise • Lower mean blood glucose levels were observed throughout the night following a 60-minute period of moderate aerobic exercise, in the afternoon, in children with T1DM. • Afternoon exercise increased the risk of nocturnal hypoglycemia from 28% to 48% when food intake and insulin regimens were not altered. • On sedentary but not exercise days, nocturnal hypoglycemia was rarely observed when the 9 PM glucose was >130mg/dL.

  14. Conclusion Our findings support the importance of modifying the child’s diabetes treatment regimen following afternoon exercise in order to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia.
