Assessing the feasibility of time in tight range (TITR) targets with advanced hybrid closed loop (AHCL) use in children and adolescents: A single‐centre real‐world study

Diabet MedPublished Retrospective real-world cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Most children and adolescents on AHCL achieved the 50% target for TITR whereas more than half achieved the >60% target. A target of >50% for TITR seems realistic in children with T1D using AHCL.

Study context

Population
Children and adolescents with T1D using AHCL (Minimed-780G); 2128-day CGM data
Participants
56 children
Exposure
Autocorrection rate <30% vs ≥30%; TITR >60% vs not
Outcome
Attainability of the TITR (3.9-7.7 mmol/L) target with AHCL
Methodological detailssingle-centre
  • Single-centre

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Attainment of TITR targets

TITR >50%

87%

TITR >60%

52%

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Time in Range (TIR) and TITR, nighttime vs daytime

TIR nighttime vs daytime
87.5 ± 9.5% vs. 78.8 ± 8%, p < 0.001
TITR nighttime vs daytime
68.2 ± 13.5% vs. 57.5 ± 8.8%, p < 0.001

Safety

Hypoglycaemia (time below range (TBR)), TITR >60% (n: 29) vs without (n: 27)

TBR 3-3.9 mmol/L, TITR >60% vs without: no significant difference
0.3% vs. 2.1%, p: 0.084
TBR < 3 mmol/L, TITR >60% vs without: no significant difference
0.47% vs. 0.3%, p: 0.298
