Abstract
Gastroparesis is associated with higher risk of severe hypoglycemia despite higher HbA1c levels than in T1D patients without gastroparesis. The increased presence of multiple long-term complications and overall poor glycemic control in these subjects emphasizes the need to establish diagnostic protocols for earlier diagnosis, achieve tighter glycemic control with more extensive use of insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitoring, and the need for wider availability of medical therapies for treatment of diabetic gastroparesis.
