Time for another #thursdaythread in collaboration with @diabeteschat.

This one is about 'time in range' (TIR)⏰

It was requested during this week's #diabeteschat session.

This thread aims to define TIR and identify recommendations for TIR. Image of the this weeks thread front cover which is about ti

What is 'time in range'?

It is a measurement of CGM sensor data highlighting how much time glucose levels are within a specific glucose range for a 24 hours period:
· 3.9 – 10.0mmol/L (70 – 180 mg/dL) for adults.
· 3.5 – 7.8mmol/L (63 – 140 mg/dL) during pregnancy🤰
3/14
Where did TIR come from?

In 2019, the @ATTDconf congress brought together a panel of individuals: #pwd, healthcare professionals and researchers with expertise in CGM.

They developed CGM target percentages of time within, below and above the glucose range⏰

Pens to Pumping

1/14

It's almost 200 days since I started using an insulin pump🗓️

So I thought I would reflect by creating a🧵covering:
What is pump therapy?
Why I switched from MDI?
What pump I chose and why?
How I switched?
What difference has it made?

#gbdoc #diabeteschat

What is pump therapy?

Insulin pump therapy is also known as a continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII).

It's basically a programmed pump that delivers rapid acting insulin through an infusion set to help manage glucose levels.
3/14

What type of insulin pumps are there?
There are two main types:

One type are tethered e.g. @TandemDiabetes T Slim, @MDT_Diabetes 780G, @mylife YpsoPump.

These pumps consist of a portable pump device, a canula that is inserted into the skin, and small tubing. Image

We have #PPE shortages even in the wealthiest country in the world. On the bright side, the incredible, global maker community has created an explosion of different #faceshield designs for #covid19. Why choose the @dtm_tweets DtM-v3 #faceshield?
It is the first #faceshield to be recommended by the U.S National Institutes of Health @NIH #3dprint exchange.
3dprint.nih.gov/discover/3dpx-…
Spark Health Design partnered with @dtm_tweets to apply our experience designing medical devices for low-resource settings to a reusable #faceshield for #covid19. It is the work of over 80 volunteers including experts from @Boeing, @Microsoft, @Harborviewmc, @uwdfab, and more.

Good morning, Senator @KeithPerryFL, and #HappyFathersDay! My name is Ryan and I am a #PublicEd advocate living, learning, and teaching in #HCPS just south of you in the Tampa area. I read your op-ed in the @GainesvilleSun and would like to offer some additional perspective (1)
(2) and perhaps clarify why you are seeing so many negative op-eds about what you and your fellow legislators have wrought over the last 20 years (and especially the last 3-5). I will move through your op-ed paragraph by paragraph in the hopes of sharing additional data / studies
(3) First paragraph: to say that a "claim is completely false" is absurd, because we, the actual educators who are working with our students every single day, must live with the ramifications created by unfundated mandates as well as constant changes and disruptions from testing.
