Bihormonal Bionic Pancreas
Participants will wear a Bionic Pancreas that uses glucagon and insulin (bihormonal) to automate their glucose control based on continuous glucose monitor readings.
Insulin Only Bionic Pancreas
Participants will wear a Bionic Pancreas that uses just insulin (insulin-only) to automate their glucose control based on continuous glucose monitor readings.
Monitored for Hypoglycemia
During half of the study arms (one each bihormonal bionic pancreas, insulin-only bionic pancreas and usual care) the subjects will be remotely monitored for device connectivity and hypoglycemia, and will be notified by study staff any time their continuous glucose monitor reads less than 50 mg/dl for 15 mintues.
Not Monitored for Hypoglycemia
During half of the study arms (one each bihormonal bionic pancreas, insulin-only bionic pancreas and usual care) the subjects will be remotely monitored for device connectivity only, not hypoglycemia.
