Feasibility and organization of a population-based screening for pre-symptomatic type 1 diabetes in children — evaluation of the Fr1da study
2018
Aim
Type 1 diabetes is the most common chronic metabolic disease in childhood. Often diagnosis comes with acutely life-threatening ketoacidosis and requires hospitalization. To avoid this, early detection of children at a pre-symptomatic stage is worthwhile. This task is met by a population-based screening in Bavaria, Germany – the Fr1da study. Here, we aim to evaluate the study concept, feasibility and medical evidence of the Fr1da study.
