Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease leading to an insulin deficiency that causes hyperglycemia and associated symptoms. It is considered the most common type of diabetes, with the 4Ts (going to the toilet a lot, being really thirsty, feeling more tired than usual, losing weight or looking thinner than usual) being the most prevalent symptoms. Non-specific signs and symptoms are also possible, and delaying or missing the diagnosis can have a devastating effect on a child's health. Children with a definitive diagnosis of diabetes often require medical treatment for problems such as ketoacidosis, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. To reach glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) values of 48 mmol/mol, lifetime rigorous monitoring and management of blood glucose levels via insulin replacement treatment is needed in T1D. Physical and psychosocial issues arise frequently with a diabetes diagnosis, resulting in poor management. Nurses play a significant role in detecting diabetes in a number of healthcare settings, resulting in quick diagnoses and prompt initiation of treatment. Not only do they provide critical assistance to help children and their families with the diagnosis, they also place particular emphasis on managing difficult days and common problems with ongoing management. Nurses can provide invaluable assistance managing this chronic condition by coping with day-to-day challenges.
