Overview

Education is an integral part of diabetes care. The structured self-management education is the key to improve glycemic control, to reduce the risk of acute and long term complications and it is associated with improved quality of life. Type 1 is the most common type of diabetes in children and adolescents. Although the basic treatment principles are the same as in adults, the developmental characteristics during childhood need to apply age-appropriate, different teaching and learning techniques that should be adaptable to individual abilities, skills, needs and requirements of patients and parents, as well.

Key words:
diabetes mellitus type 1 – education – specifities in children and adolescents – glycemic control criteria
