Reduction in Severe Hypoglycemia With Long-Term Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion in Type I Diabetes

Bode, Bruce W, Steed, R Dennis, Davidson, Paul C·1996·Diabetes Care

Abstract

Objective To compare the incidence of severe hypoglycemia in patients crossed over from multiple daily injections (MDIs) of insulin to continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). Research design and methods From a population of 225 patients using CSII, all patients who met the following selection criteria were included in the present study: 1) a minimum of 12 months on intensive therapy with MDIs before switching to CSII, and 2) a minimum of 12 months on CSII after crossover. Glycemic control and adverse event rates for the 1-year MDI control period were compared with those for the CSII therapy period. Results The incidence of severe hypoglycemia during MDI therapy declined from 138 to 22 events per 100 patient-years during the 1st year of CSII (P or = 8.0%, the change to CSII was associated with a significant reduction in HbA1c from baseline to year 1 (8.9 +/- 0.8 vs. 8.1 +/- 1.0%, P = 0.0004). The difference in diabetic ketoacidosis rates between the MDI year (14.6 events per 100 patient-years) and the CSII period (7.2 events per 100 patient-years) was not statistically significant. Conclusions CSII therapy was associated with a marked and sustained reduction in the rate of severe hypoglycemia without adversely affecting the level of glycemic control attained during MDI therapy. The more reproducible and flexible insulin delivery afforded by CSII was considered to be the major factor contributing to the improvement in severe hypoglycemia rates.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
