Table 1: Target population.

Parameter Age <16 years Age ≥16 years Reference
NW London CCGs Population 390,037 1,737,909 16
Persons with diabetes* 145,564 17
Prevalence of T1D 0.19% 10% 18, 1
Prevalence of IAH in T1D 29% 20% 19, 20

*The estimate of prevalence of T1D in children in England is 187.7 per 100,000. Number of T1D patients was directly estimated from the population aged <16 years in NW London CCGs. This is because the diabetes prevalence model estimates for local authorities by Public Health England gave the prevalence estimates for population >16 years only so the prevalence estimates for population <16 years had to be derived separately. CCGs = clinical commissioning groups; IAH = impaired awareness of hypoglycaemia; T1D = type 1 diabetes.
