Abstract
Introduction and Objective: The Bigfoot Unity System integrates Abbott FreeStyle Libre 2 CGM data into a smart insulin pen cap and mobile app enabling clinician-directed insulin dose recommendations and real time alerts. The objective was to analyze real world, 12-month data for System users. Methods: We conducted a 12-month final analysis from the prospective BURST study (NCT05088265) and report the per-protocol results (N=125). Participants completed baseline, adverse event and patient-reported outcome surveys electronically. HbA1c data were from home kits or electronic medical records. Results: Median age was 58 years and 86% had T2D. Mean HbA1c decreased from 9.2±1.8% at baseline to 8.0±1.2% at 12 months (mean change -1.3%, 95%CI -1.6, -0.9; p<0.001). There were six severe hypoglycemia events in 4 participants (none System related), and no DKA. Diabetes Distress Scale scores decreased (mean change -0.8, 95%CI -1.0, -0.6; p<0.001) and Hypoglycemic Confidence Scale scores increased (mean change 0.5, 95%CI 0.4, 0.7; p<0.001) with System use (Table). Conclusion: Durable glycemic improvement with reduced diabetes distress and increased hypoglycemic confidence occurred using the System for 6 months and sustained through 12 months. The reduction in HbA1c occurred while meeting established hypoglycemia targets of <4 and <1% for percent time below 70 and 54 mg/dL, respectively. Disclosure J. Tillman: Employee; Abbott. R.W.

期刊介绍:
Diabetes is a scientific journal that publishes original research exploring the physiological and pathophysiological aspects of diabetes mellitus. We encourage submissions of manuscripts pertaining to laboratory, animal, or human research, covering a wide range of topics. Our primary focus is on investigative reports investigating various aspects such as the development and progression of diabetes, along with its associated complications. We also welcome studies delving into normal and pathological pancreatic islet function and intermediary metabolism, as well as exploring the mechanisms of drug and hormone action from a pharmacological perspective. Additionally, we encourage submissions that delve into the biochemical and molecular aspects of both normal and abnormal biological processes.
However, it is important to note that we do not publish studies relating to diabetes education or the application of accepted therapeutic and diagnostic approaches to patients with diabetes mellitus. Our aim is to provide a platform for research that contributes to advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms and processes of diabetes.
