title: [Technological advances in the treatment of type 1 diabetes in pediatric patients].
abstract: The most recent innovations serving pediatric type 1 diabetes patients are the insulin pump and its new functions and continuous glucose measurement, which, associated with the pump, foreshadows the artificial pancreas. Strictly controlling glycemia in type 1 diabetes is necessary to prevent complications, but the main side effect is the risk of frequent episodes of hypoglycemia, most particularly severe hypoglycemia.
