Outcomes in Pump- and CGM-Baseline Use Subgroups in the International Diabetes Closed-Loop Trial

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Secondary analysis of a randomised controlled trial

Authors' conclusion

There was a consistent benefit in patients with T1D when using CLC, regardless of baseline insulin delivery modality or CGM use. These data suggest that this CLC system can be considered across a wide range of patients.

Study context

Population
Individuals with T1D, stratified by baseline device use: pump+continuous glucose monitor (CGM), pump-only, multiple daily injections (MDI)+CGM, MDI-only
Participants
168 individuals
Comparison
Closed-loop control (CLC) vs sensor-augmented pump (SAP) across baseline device-use subgroups
