Summary

A hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic clamp is an experimental procedure, which allows for hypoglycemia to be studied in a safe and controlled manner. The goal of this study is to establish the hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic clamp procedure at Pennington Biomedical Research Center in order to apply the knowledge gained to future studies which will determine the efficacy of our biomarker for predicting susceptibility to hypoglycemia. Additionally, our use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) during the clamp procedure will provide novel data regarding the accuracy of CGM during hypoglycemic conditions in a controlled research setting.
