Evaluation of Extended Wear Infusion Set With 670G Hybrid Closed-Loop Therapy

Evaluation of Extended Wear Infusion Set With 670G Hybrid Closed-Loop Therapy

This is a randomized trial to determine if an extended wear infusion set can be worn for up to 7 days with a hybrid closed-loop system in adult with Type 1 Diabetes

This study will compare use of a standard infusion set with an extended wear infusion set. Subjects will be asked to wear both types of sets twice for up to 7 days, alternating wear of set type over 4 weeks. The order of infusion set wear will be randomized with the first set wear. The investigators aim to see whether there is a benefit to using an extended wear infusion set.
