Frequency of Rebound Hyperglycemia in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes Treated with Different Insulin Delivery Modalities

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

Groups with insulin suspension features experienced the highest frequency of RH; however, AID users tended to experience shorter and less severe RH events.

Study context

Population
Adults with T1D using CGM attending the outpatient clinic at Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen
Exposure
MDI vs unintegrated insulin pumps vs SAP vs automated insulin delivery (AID)
Outcome
Frequency of RH (≥1 SG >10.0 mmol/L starting within 2 h of an antecedent SG <3.9 mmol/L)
