Root Cause Determination of Catheter Obstructions

During this study, the investigators will perform a collection of biological and device samples (blood, catheters, insulin) in order to investigate the causes of catheter obstructions in patients with type 1 diabetes treated by implanted insulin pumps using intra-peritoneal delivery. This multi-centre study is interventional with minimal constraints. After an inclusion visit, blood samples and an insulin sample from pump reservoir will be collected. During the following year, if a peritoneal catheter is blocked or changed, the explanted catheter and new blood and insulin samples will be collected for examination of the catheter obstruction and search for patient- or insulin-related reasons for obstructions. In this study, 140 patients will be investigated.
