UK NHS pump user - comment on NICE "closed loop" draft guidelines

[oldgreymare]

Calling all UK NHS pump users,

The press and social media have made a big story out of the recent publication of DRAFT NICE guidance on combined pump + CGM systems (aka artificial pancreas ) -

"Hybrid closed loop systems for managing blood glucose levels in type 1 diabetes"​

But this is still just a draft and not yet active. It is open to comments including from the public until 31 January. The recommendations mostly apply to T1's that are already NHS pump users - if that's you, worth reading the draft criteria and commenting as necessary. Make your opinion heard! You will need to create a NICE account to provide online comments.
