Abstract
Background: Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) use in adults with type 1 diabetes offers psychosocial and clinical benefits, but little is known about its impact on such outcomes in the type 2 diabetes (T2D) population. To address this gap, we conducted a quasi-experimental prospective study to assess psychosocial, glycemic, and behavioral changes over six months in T2D adults on multiple daily injections (MDI) who were interested in starting Omnipod DASH, comparing those who did versus did not start on it.
Methods: In total, 458 adults with T2D completed baseline questionnaires assessing psychosocial dimensions (eg, diabetes distress), clinical metrics (eg, HbA1c [glycosylated hemoglobin]), and behavioral measures (eg, missed mealtime boluses). Six months later, 220 (48.0%) completed the same questionnaire again. To examine differences in outcomes over time between those who began CSII (n = 176) versus those who remained on MDI (n = 44), a latent change score approach was used.
Results: The CSII users reported greater gains than MDI users on all major psychosocial metrics, including overall well-being (P < .001) diabetes distress (P < .001), perceived T2D impact on quality of life (P = .003), and hypoglycemic worries and concerns (P < .001). The CSII users similarly reported a larger decline in HbA1c than MDI users (P < .05) and greater declines in two critical self-care behaviors: number of missed mealtime boluses (P < .001) and number of days of perceived overeating (P = .001).
Conclusions: The introduction of CSII (Omnipod DASH) in T2D adults can contribute to significant psychosocial, glycemic, and behavioral benefits, indicating that broader use of CSII in the T2D population may be of value.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology (JDST) is a bi-monthly, peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the Diabetes Technology Society. JDST covers scientific and clinical aspects of diabetes technology including glucose monitoring, insulin and metabolic peptide delivery, the artificial pancreas, digital health, precision medicine, social media, cybersecurity, software for modeling, physiologic monitoring, technology for managing obesity, and diagnostic tests of glycation. The journal also covers the development and use of mobile applications and wireless communication, as well as bioengineered tools such as MEMS, new biomaterials, and nanotechnology to develop new sensors. Articles in JDST cover both basic research and clinical applications of technologies being developed to help people with diabetes.
