PDGN Co-Chair and President of the Maltese Diabetes Association (MDA), Chris Delicata, reports on the work by the Association working with Malta’s politicians to deliver a project to distribute Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) devices to children and adolescents under 16 years and living with type 1 diabetes as part of the island’s National Health Service.
It is part of a six-month pilot that will see around two hundred children and adolescents benefit. The MDA would like to see this project extended beyond 6-months and to all persons living with type 1 diabetes, irrespective of age.
