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.
