Thanks for the answer! I've yet to experience ruined insulin due to thermal conditions. My son recently debuted but will soon go back to kindergarten and they will need to handle the medication during the day. Both me and my wife are medical doctors but the staff at kindergarten are not well experienced with medicine and may accidentally leave it outside for too long.
In Sweden where I live the medication and equipment is free so that's not the reason to watch the temperature. Looking outside my window right now there's snow everywhere and -19 °C. In the maternal line of my son T1D is common and frozen insulin is not too uncommon, heat damage not a problem.
I realize this is not of great concert but I'd like the challenge of creating a monitoring system.
Hi and thanks for the imput. I've already found nightscout/xdrip and delved into creating a monitoring system for my son to use in the future.
The spare insulin is not really for filling pump reaervoirs, but rather in case of pump malfunction. In Sweden T1D:s always carry spare insulin together with manual injectors.
The concern is primarily low temperatures and frozen insulin when me and my wife work and my son is in kindergarten.
