About this trial

The REMODAL trial is a randomized crossover study aiming to update treatment guidelines for mild hypoglycemia in people with Type 1 diabetes using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology. The study will assess whether treating mild hypoglycemia proactively (at a glucose threshold of 5.0 mmol/L) with lower doses of carbohydrate (CHO) is more effective than the traditional reactive approach (treatment at \< 4.0 mmol/L). The goal is to reduce hypoglycemia frequency and improve quality of life, while minimizing caloric intake and rebound hyperglycemia.
