Rebound Hyperglycemia in Children and Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes Using Automated Insulin Delivery Systems

Diabetes Technol TherPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

In conclusion, RH was common and associated with adverse glucose outcomes.

Study context

Population
Children and adolescents <18 years with T1D using automated insulin delivery (AID) systems; mean age 11 ± 2 years, HbA1c 53.9 ± 10.3 mmol/mol, 84 females
Participants
190 children
Exposure
Tandem Control-IQ vs Medtronic MiniMed 780G
  • Control-IQ (CIQ)n = 94
Outcome
Frequency and severity of rebound hyperglycemia (sensor glucose (SG) >10.0 mmol/L within 2 h after hypoglycemia SG <3.9 mmol/L); severity as area under the SG-curve above 10.0 mmol/L

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Hypoglycemia events per week (mean ± SD)

9.4 ± 5.5

Hypoglycemia events leading to rebound hyperglycemia (RH)

41%

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Association of RH-severity with glucose metrics

Greater RH-severity associated with lower TIR and higher glycemic variability
