**Updated data from @NPDA_RCPCH ** As of end September 2026: Ages 0-18 with #T1Diabetes @NHSEngland 🔵 #ContinuousGlucoseMonitor uptake: 93.5% 🔵 #HybridClosedLoop uptake: 74.1% 🔵 Median Hba1c: 55 mmol/mol 🔵 Minimal to no gaps based on ethnicity & deprivation Median HbA1c in 2017/18 just before the tech roll out began: 64 mmol/mol Implementation of @NICEComms NG 18 and TA 943- with funds and a plan The power of technology in self management- across a population. And reduction of complications for a generation. Once you accept less than the best? You allow mediocrity. And in what I do- there is no space for that. @BT1DUK @DiabetesUK @NHSGIRFT #gbdoc

If you are at @EASDnews and fancy coming to a “different” way of doing a session? Come along Sharing a stage with those with lived experience - what’s the point otherwise anyway #T1Diabetes and #T2Diabetes And some provocative discussions on whether everyone should have a CGM in tight health budgets Whether hypos are really THAT big an issue Whether AI is just about tech-bros jumping onto a fad in diabetes care And whether pineapple belongs on a pizza. And oh it’s not a typical stage either Come along for some fun- if you can. #EASD2026 #Milan

I use Scheduler Pilot to sync scheduled stuff to calendar…yesterday realized I could then read those in from the calendar and cut out some manual logged things in Protocol Pilot…little automations everywhere adding up and cutting down on manual effort 👏🏻
I originally made an app for myself to track a new medication I was trying, added more features, and a friend pointed out that she might use it, too. This helped me realize I would probably use it a few different ways for occasional med tracking, too. (1/3)

Minimed announces CE marking for the Flex pump, with rollout later this year in select European countries, followed by a broader launch toward the end of 2026. In my video, 4 days ago, I did say it was coming soon 👀 Everything you need to know here: youtu.be/Q12saBu4iXU

The first sensor that tracks ketones and glucose continuously: Libre Duo / Libre 4 is here. My new video shares everything you need to know about this latest CGM or CXM. I've been hospitalised with DKA myself several years ago, so this one's personal. youtu.be/PvFieeSl4T4

Great reminder that scaling adoption of new technologies and therapies requires many pieces of the puzzle to come together!
Watching Prof David O'Neal at #ADATS26, it strikes me he is the epitome of the passionate, quietly-spoken researcher which is the vast majority of those working in diabetes. The grifters/cookers make the 'professionals' the enemy but, in my experience, their intentions are pure.
