Concerns and Background

The following recommendations are directed to all professional and vocational groups which take care of and support children and adolescents with diabetes, as well as their families. It is also directed to higher level organisations, such as health insurers, which deal with diabetes. This guideline concentrates on the specifics for this age group which are not described in the DDG’s general guidelines for the therapy of type 1 diabetes, or are described there, but somewhat differently [1].

As stated in the specifications of the health ministries of Germany’s states and in keeping with the current practice of many clinics, this paediatric guideline applies to all diabetes patients who are not yet 18 years of age. In individual clinical cases this guideline can also be used for young adults.
