%X This is the first report from the National  Centre for Monitoring Diabetes to examine the management and impact of  diabetes in youth in Australia. 

Diabetes affects a considerable number  of young people: in 2010, about 31,300 Australians aged 0-30 years with  diabetes were registered with the National Diabetes Service Scheme. Most  (79%) had Type 1 diabetes. This report explores how young Australians  with diabetes are managing their condition, their use of health services  and the diabetes-related health problems they experience.
