Children and parents need support to help understand the relationship between PA and BG control and how to use PA as a vehicle through which to better manage the condition. T1DM healthcare professionals (HCPs) perceive a lack of i) competence, ii) confidence and iii) time to provide PA advice and education in the clinical setting. HCPs perceive a need for evidence-based resources to facilitate PA discussion, education and promotion (Quirk et al., 2015). Physical activity monitoring is already a widely recognised and accepted tool, with potential utility in paediatric diabetes.
