ongoing concern of working with high-risk in-hospital transplant population during the various stages of the COVID-19 Pandemic.

This study will be a prospective, single center, randomized controlled parallel group open-label trial. Participants with insulin requiring diabetes mellitus who have been offered an organ for living or deceased donor kidney transplantation will be recruited prior to transplantation surgery. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 fashion to AP (6 patients) and conventional treatment groups (3 patients). At the end of the subject's post-operative in-patient stay, participants will have the option of wearing a blinded CGM at home for 4 weeks while treating themselves with multiple daily injections (MDI).

The purpose of this study is to conduct a hypothesis-generating pilot study to assess the efficacy and safety of the closed loop control in kidney transplant recipients with history of insulin requiring diabetes mellitus in the early postoperative period.

This study will be a prospective, single center, randomized controlled parallel group open-label trial. Participants with insulin requiring diabetes mellitus who have been offered an organ for living or deceased donor kidney transplantation will be recruited prior to transplantation surgery. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 fashion to AP (6 patients) and conventional treatment groups (3 patients). At the end of the subject's post-operative in-patient stay, participants will have the option of wearing a blinded CGM at home for 12 weeks while treating themselves with multiple daily injections (MDI).

4. History of insulin prescription (past or current use)
5. If female and sexually active, must agree to use a form of contraception to prevent pregnancy while a participant in the study. A negative serum or urine pregnancy test will be required for all females of childbearing potential. Participants who become pregnant will be discontinued from the study.
