A recent pilot study by researchers from Tennessee’s Vanderbilt University Medical Centre compared the effects of sleep education coaching on a random group of teens aged 13-17 with type 1, with another group who only received their standard care routine. The study found teens who participated in the program showed a significant improvement in both sleep duration and sleep quality; while those without the program were 7.5 times more likely to experience poor sleep. The HbA1c levels of each group were not affected. The results are published in Pediatric Diabetes.
