Abstract
Type 1 diabetes is a disease in which autoimmune destruction of pancreatic β-cells leads to insulin deficiency. Controlling blood glucose with an acceptable range is a major goal of therapy. Measurements of hemoglobin A1c and blood glucose levels are used for both the diagnosis and the long-term management of the disease. This chapter briefly describes the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of type 1 diabetes.
