In this study the usability of the Omnipod DASH insulin administration system is evaluated prospectively by two questionnaires. The effect on the metabolic control is evaluated retrospectively by analysis of data from the medical records of the patients.
In the study the usability of the Omnipod DASH (= insulin patch pump) is evaluated prospectively by two questionnaires. The first questionnaire concerns practical items on the application of the pump (e.g. Is it easy to fill to pod?), the wearing of the pump (e.g. Is it comfortable to wear the pump?) and the comparison with insulin administration with insulin pens or other insulin pumps (e.g. is it less painful to administrate insulin by the Omnipod DASH pump). The second questionnaire asks for possible problems that the patients experienced during the wearing of the pump (e.g. did you experience an allergic skin reaction). The questions are formulated to be answered by a 5-point likert scale.
The metabolic control is studied retrospectively from data extracted from the medical records, i.e. the results of the determination of HbA1c and the results from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) at the start, and after 2, 4 and 6 months of the wearing of the Omnipod DASH insulin pump.

| Usability of and problems encountered with the Omnipod Dash insulin administration system | Usability of and problems encountered with the Omnipod Dash insulin administration system is evaluated by 2 home made questionnaire evaluated by a 5 point Likert scale. The first questionnaire includes 3 questions about the application of the pod (e.g. it is easy to place the pod), 7 questions about the wearing of the pod (e.g. the pod doesn't hinder me during sleeping) and 11 questions comparing insulin administration with insulin pens (e.g. insulin administration with the pod is more discrete). The second questionnaire includes 9 questions about possible problems with the Omnipod DASH insulin administration system (e.g. I developped an allergic skin reaction). | Through study completion, an average of 6 months |

| Metabolic control of type 1 diabetes mellitus | Metabolic control of the type 1 diabetes mellitus measured by HbA1c levels and results from continuous glucose measurement data (e.g. time in range, time below range, time above range). | Before and during the first 6 months of wearing the Omnipod Dash insulin administration system |
