Clinical and Economic Impact of Hybrid Closed-Loop Systems for T1 Diabetes Management in Spain

Endocr PractPublished Cost-effectiveness modelling study

Authors' conclusion

HCL systems should be considered the primary treatment option compared with is-CGM+CSII therapy for people with type 1 diabetes mellitus in Spain.

Study context

Population

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Incremental QALYs gained with HCL at 50 years

1.15

Cost savings at 50 years (highest), mostly from lower amputation, ulcer and nephrological event rates

28 704 922€/1000 individuals
