CSHQ: Children’s Sleep Habit Questionnaire; PSQI: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; SAP: sensor-augmented pump; CL: closed-loop system. Number of participants: 21. Sleep quality was reported using a five-point scale from very poor (1) to very good (5), sleep latency, time awake at night, and WASO were coded in minutes, sleep duration was coded in hours, and sleep efficiency was coded in %. Higher scores for PSQI and CSHQ represent poorer sleep quality.
