Objective: This study evaluated the efficacy of using a hybrid closed loop (HCL) system in restoring hypoglycemia awareness in individuals with impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH). Research Design and Methods: Participants with IAH (Gold score >= 4) were recruited into a randomized crossover pilot study. They participated in two 8-week periods using a HCL system (Medtronic 670G (TM)) (intervention) and standard insulin pump therapy (control). Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic clamp studies were undertaken at baseline and at the end of each study period for the evaluation of the counter-regulatory hormonal and symptomatic responses to hypoglycemia. Results: Seventeen participants (mean age [standard deviation] 35.8 years [11.2 years]) were included in the study. Peak epinephrine levels (median, interquartile range [IQR]) in response to hypoglycemia were similar postintervention and control periods; 234.7 pmol/L (109.2; 938.9) versus 188.3 pmol/L (133.7; 402.9), P = 0.233. However, both peak adrenergic and neuroglycopenic symptom scores were higher after intervention; 5.0 (4.5; 9.0) versus 4.0 (4.0; 5.5), P = 0.009, and 8.5 (6.0; 15.0) versus 6.5 (6.0; 7.0) P = 0.014, respectively. Self-reported hypoglycemia awareness improved: median (IQR) Gold score was 4.0 (3.0; 5.5) versus 5.5 (4.5; 6.0); intervention versus control, P = 0.033. Time spent
