Summary
It has been reported that insulin basal rate reduction initiated at exercise onset can reduce
the hypoglycemic risk during exercise. However, another potentially more efficient strategy
to prevent exercise-induced hypoglycemia could be to reduce insulin basal rate a certain time
prior to exercise. The objective of this study will be to compare the efficacy of two
strategies to prevent exercise-induced hypoglycemia during a 60-minute exercise at moderate
intensity: 1) reduce insulin basal rate 40 minutes prior to exercise; 2) reduce insulin basal
rate 90 minutes prior to exercise.
