ObjectivesDiabetes management presents a substantial burden to individuals living with the condition and their families, health care professionals, and health care systems. Although an increasing number of digital tools are available to assist with tasks such as blood glucose monitoring and insulin dose calculation, multiple persistent barriers continue to prevent their optimal use.MethodsAs a guide to creating an equitable connected digital diabetes ecosystem, we propose a roadmap with key milestones that need to be achieved along the way.ResultsDuring the Coronavirus 2019 pandemic, there was an increased use of digital tools to support diabetes care, but at the same time, the pandemic also highlighted problems of inequities in access to and use of these same technologies. Based on these observations, a connected diabetes ecosystem should incorporate and optimize the use of existing treatments and technologies, integrate tasks such as glucose monitoring, data analysis, and insulin dose calculations, and lead to improved and equitable health outcomes.ConclusionsDevelopment of this ecosystem will require overcoming multiple obstacles, including interoperability and data security concerns. However, an integrated system would optimize existing devices, technologies, and treatments to improve outcomes.  相似文献

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to define an expert opinion on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus, including its advantages, barriers, and best clinical practices for initiation, patient-clinician communication, and data management.MethodsA series of virtual discussions was held to recommend improvements to clinical practice and design clinical tools for primary care clinicians. Participants included endocrinologists, primary care physicians, physician assistants, advanced practice nurses, and diabetes care and education specialists.ResultsThe expert panels recommended CGM as a supplement to blood glucose monitoring and hemoglobin A1c for managing diabetes in persons with diabetes (PWDs). CGM can help predict potential pitfalls in glycemic management, including hypo and hyperglycemic excursions, which directly influence lifestyle changes, medication initiation, and dosing decisions. A toolkit was designed with practical guidance on the integration of CGM into clinical practice, interpretation of results, clinical guidelines, a patient action plan, and other useful management tools.ConclusionThis review summarizes the findings from a roundtable discussion with endocrinology and primary care clinicians, a discussion of the advantages and challenges of CGM, and clinical approaches to improving the care of PWDs. CGM offers more detailed tracking of glucose levels than blood glucose monitoring or hemoglobin A1c, and it can detect asymptomatic hypoglycemia. Specialized education of providers, the cost to patients and providers, and data management are barriers to the widespread adoption of CGM for PWDs.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo assess the landscape of digital health resources in the United States, better understand the impact of the digital health on shared decision-making, and identify potential barriers and opportunities for progress in the care of persons with diabetes.MethodsThe study consisted of two phases: A qualitative phase in which one-on-one interviews were conducted virtually with 34 physicians (endocrinologists {Endos}: n = 15; primary care physicians {PCPs}: n = 19) between February 11, 2021 and February 18, 2021, and a quantitative phase in which two online, email-based surveys in the English language were conducted between April 16, 2021 and May 17, 2021: one with healthcare professionals (HCP) (n = 403: n = 200 Endos and n = 203 PCPs), and one with persons with diabetes (n = 517: patients with type 1 diabetes, n = 257; patients with type 2 diabetes, n = 260).ResultsDiabetes digital health tools were found to be helpful in shared decision-making, but leading barriers include cost, coverage, and lack of time by healthcare professionals. Among diabetes digital health tools, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems were used most commonly and viewed as most effective in improving quality of life and facilitating shared decision-making. Strategies for increasing use of diabetes digital health resources included lower cost, integration into electronic health records, and increased simplicity of tools.ConclusionThis study revealed that both Endos and PCPs feel that diabetes digital health tools have an overall positive impact. Integration with telemedicine and simpler, lower cost tools with increased patient access can further facilitate shared decision-making and improved diabetes care and quality of life.  相似文献

ObjectiveApproximately 6.3% of the worldwide population has type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and the number of people requiring insulin is increasing. Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems integrate continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion and continuous glucose monitoring with a predictive control algorithm to provide more physiologic glycemic control. Personalized glycemic targets are recommended in T2DM owing to the heterogeneity of the disease. Based on the success of hybrid closed-loop systems in improving glycemic control and safety in type 1 diabetes mellitus, there has been further interest in the use of these systems in people with T2DM.MethodsWe performed a review of AID systems with a focus on the T2DM population.ResultsIn 5 randomized controlled trials, AID systems improve time in range and reduce glycemic variability, without increasing insulin requirements or the risk of hypoglycemia.ConclusionAID systems in T2DM are safe and effective in hospitalized and closely monitored settings. Home studies of longer duration are required to assess for long-term benefit and identify target populations of benefit.  相似文献

ObjectiveInsulin pump discontinuation has mostly been studied in children and adolescents living with diabetes. We aimed to assess the rate of insulin pump continuation in a population of adult patients with diabetes, at 18 months after initiation; determine the factors associated with pump discontinuation; and develop a simple prediction model.MethodsThis single-center, retrospective study included all adult patients with type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes who started insulin pump treatment between January 2015 and June 2018. The exclusion criteria were pregnancy, short-term pregnancy plans, and insulin pump discontinuation within the previous 6 months. The probability of insulin pump continuation after 18 months was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Factors associated with insulin pump discontinuation were studied using a Cox regression model, and an exponential model was built for prediction purposes.ResultsThe study included 315 patients. The mean age was 41 years, the mean duration of diabetes was 16 years, 50% were men, 74% had type 1 diabetes, and the mean hemoglobin A1c level was 9.1% (76 mmol/mol). After 18 months, the rate of insulin pump continuation was 0.80 (95% Confidence Interval (CI), 0.76-0.85). By multivariate analysis, the occurrence of severe hypoglycemia in the previous year was associated with insulin pump discontinuation (hazard ratio, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.30-4.51), while other factors did not reach statistical significance.ConclusionInsulin pump discontinuation occurred in 20% of patients at 18 months after initiation and was mainly associated with a recent history of severe hypoglycemia. The type of diabetes and glycemic control at baseline were not associated with treatment discontinuation.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo provide a review of the impact of high deductible health plans (HDHPs) on the utilizations of services required for optimal management of diabetes and subsequent health outcomes.MethodsSystematic literature review of studies published between January 1, 2000, and May 7, 2021, was conducted that examined the impact of HDHP on diabetes monitoring (eg, recommended laboratory and surveillance testing), routine care (eg, ambulatory appointments), medication management (eg, medication initiation, adherence), and acute health care utilization (eg, emergency department visits, hospitalizations, incident complications).ResultsOf the 303 reviewed articles, 8 were relevant. These studies demonstrated that HDHPs lower spending at the expense of reduced high-value diabetes monitoring, routine care, and medication adherence, potentially contributing to the observed increases in acute health care utilization. Additionally, patient out-of-pocket costs for recommended screenings doubled, and total health care expenditures increased by 49.4% for HDHP enrollees compared with enrollees in traditional health plans. Reductions in disease monitoring and routine care and increases in acute health care utilization were greatest in lower-income patients. None of the studies examined the impact of HDHPs on access to diabetes self-management education, technology use, or glycemic control.ConclusionAlthough HDHPs reduce some health care utilization and costs, they appear to do so at the expense of limiting high-value care and medication adherence. Policymakers, providers, and payers should be more cognizant of the potential for negative consequences of HDHPs on patients’ health.  相似文献

ObjectiveWe conducted a posthoc analysis of the VIVID study (Safety and Efficacy of Human Regular U-500 Insulin Administered by Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion Versus Multiple Daily Injections in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Randomized, Open-Label, Parallel Clinical Trial), comparing 2 delivery methods of human regular U-500 insulin (U-500R), continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) versus multiple daily injection (MDI), in type 2 diabetes requiring high insulin, to determine influence of prestudy insulin on glycemic outcomes.MethodsWe compared A1C, total daily insulin dose (TDD), weight, and hypoglycemia by subgroups of prestudy insulin (prestudy U-500R vs non-U-500R) and treatment (CSII vs MDI).ResultsAt baseline, prestudy U-500R had higher TDD, higher body mass index, lower A1C and fasting plasma glucose, and higher rate of hypoglycemia compared to non-U-500R. Active titration of U-500R reduced A1C in both subgroups, with maximum benefit at 8 weeks. At 26 weeks, CSII provided the greatest reduction in A1C in both subgroups, with a greater reduction in non-U-500R. MDI provided an A1C reduction in both subgroups, with the greater reduction in non-U-500R. At 8 weeks, prestudy U-500R reached its lowest A1C; thereafter, A1C rebounded with MDI and remained stable with CSII. In non-U-500R, A1C continued to decrease to study end. In non-U-500R, hypoglycemia increased during active titration, but then decreased in the posttitration maintenance period. In both subgroups, TDD increased from baseline with MDI but not with CSII. Body weight increased in both subgroups but was greater in prestudy U-500R with CSII compared to MDI.ConclusionRegardless of previous insulin, people on high-dose insulin could lower A1C with U-500R, with additional benefit from CSII. These results may provide guidance for use of U-500R in clinical practice.  相似文献

ObjectiveMany youth do not use the hybrid closed-loop system for type 1 diabetes effectively. This study evaluated the impact of financial incentives for diabetes-related tasks on use of the 670G hybrid closed-loop system and on glycemia.MethodsAt auto mode initiation and for 16 weeks thereafter, participants received a flat rate for wearing and calibrating the sensor ($1/day), administering at least 3 mealtime insulin boluses per day ($1/day), and uploading ($5/week). Weekly bonuses were given for maintaining at least 70% of the time in auto mode, which were increased for persistent auto mode use from $3/week to a maximum of $13/week. If a participant failed to maintain auto mode for a week, the rewards were reset to baseline. Data from 17 participants aged 15.9 years ± 2.5 years (baseline hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c] 8.6% ± 1.1%) were collected at 6, 12, and 16 weeks. The reinforcers were withdrawn at 16 weeks, with a follow-up assessment at 24 weeks.ResultsWith reinforcers, the participants administered an average of at least 3 mealtime insulin boluses per day and wore the sensor over 70% of the time. However, auto mode use waned. HbA1c levels decreased by 0.5% after 6 weeks, and this improvement was maintained at 12 and 16 weeks (P < .05). Upon withdrawal of reinforcers, HbA1c levels increased back to baseline at 24 weeks.ConclusionCompensation for diabetes-related tasks was associated with lower HbA1c levels, consistent administration of mealtime insulin boluses, and sustained sensor use. These results support the potential of financial rewards for improving outcomes in youth with type 1 diabetes.  相似文献

ObjectivesType 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic disease with patients across the age spectrum that has high potential for morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, patients transitioning from pediatric to adult care continue to demonstrate worsened glycemic control in part due to lack of understanding of transition of care best practices.MethodsThis review highlights the impact of existing transition of care interventions, assessment tools, and other recently published strategies for providers to consider to improve care of adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients with T1D in both hospital- and clinic-based settings.ResultsMany barriers impact patients with T1D during the transition period and disparities by race, sex, insurance status, and comorbid illness persist. As diabetic care continues to evolve and the prevalence of adolescents and young adults living with T1D increases, an intentional approach to transition of care is more pressing than ever. While current literature on transition of care models is limited, many show promise in improving clinic attendance and decreasing hospitalization. There are critical discussions that providers should lead with AYA patients to improve their outcomes and increase diabetes self-management, such as re-addressing carbohydrate counseling, sleep hygiene, and reproductive planning.ConclusionWhile further research on transition of care is needed, many care models offer the promise of improved T1D outcomes, enhancements in our approach to care, and increased value for our health care system at large.  相似文献

ObjectiveHyperglycemia often occurs after the transition from intravenous insulin infusion (IVII) to subcutaneous insulin. Weight-based basal insulin initiated earlier in the course of IVII in the medical intensive care unit (MICU), and a weight-based basal-bolus regimen after IVII, can potentially improve post-IVII glycemic control by 48 hours.MethodsThis prospective study included 69 patients in MICU who were on IVII for ≥24 hours. Exclusions were end-stage renal disease, type 1 diabetes mellitus, and the active use of vasopressors. The intervention group received weight-based basal insulin (0.2-0.25 units/kg) with IVII and weight-based bolus insulin after IVII. The control group received current care. The primary end points were glucose levels at specific time intervals up to 48 hours after IVII.ResultsThere were 25 patients in the intervention group and 44 in the control group. The mean age of the patients was 59 ± 15 years, 32 (47%) were men, and 52 (78%) had prior diabetes mellitus. The 2 groups were not different (acute kidney injury/chronic kidney disease, pre-existing diabetes mellitus, illness severity, or nothing by mouth status after IVII), except for the steroid use, which was higher in the control group than in the intervention group (34% vs 12%, respectively). Glucose levels were not lower until 36 to 48 hours after IVII (166.8 ± 39.1 mg/dL vs 220.0 ± 82.9 mg/dL, P < .001). When controlling for body mass index, nutritional status, hemoglobin A1C, and steroid use, glucose level was lower starting at 12 to 24 hours out (166.87 mg/dL vs 207.50 mg/dL, P = .015). The frequency of hypoglycemia was similar between the 2 groups (5.0% vs 7.1%). The study did not reach target enrollment.ConclusionThe addition of weight-based basal insulin during, and basal-bolus insulin immediately after, IVII in MICU results in better glycemic control at 24 hours after IVII with no increased hypoglycemia.  相似文献

Background/ObjectiveCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is thought to contribute to diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and worse outcomes in patients with diabetes. This study compared the cumulative insulin dose required to achieve DKA resolution in the intensive care unit among patients with type 2 diabetes and COVID-19 infection versus without COVID-19 infection.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study evaluated 100 patients—50 patients with COVID-19 in cohort 1 and 50 patients without COVID-19 in cohort 2—treated with insulin infusions for DKA at a tertiary care teaching hospital. The primary outcome was to compare the cumulative insulin dose required to achieve DKA resolution in each cohort. The secondary outcomes included time to DKA resolution, mean insulin infusion rate, and mean weight-based cumulative insulin infusion dose required to achieve DKA resolution. All endpoints were adjusted for confounders.ResultsThe mean cumulative insulin dose was 190.3 units in cohort 1 versus 116.4 units in cohort 2 (P = .0038). Patients receiving steroids had a mean time to DKA resolution of 35.9 hours in cohort 1 versus 15.6 hours in cohort 2 (P = .0014). In cohort 1 versus cohort 2, the mean insulin infusion rate was 7.1 units/hour versus 5.3 units/hour (P = .0025), whereas the mean weight-based cumulative insulin infusion dose was 2.1 units/kg versus 1.5 units/kg (P = .0437), respectively.ConclusionCOVID-19-infected patients required a significantly larger cumulative insulin dose, longer time to DKA resolution, higher insulin infusion rate, and higher weight-based insulin infusion dose to achieve DKA resolution versus non–COVID-19-infected patients with type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare glycemic efficacy of Technosphere insulin (TI) versus that of insulin aspart (IA), each added to basal insulin, in type 2 diabetes.MethodsThis randomized, 24-week trial included subjects aged from 18 to 80 years who were treated with subcutaneous insulin for 3 months and had glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) levels of 7.0% to 11.5%. After receiving stabilized insulin glargine doses during a 4-week lead in, the subjects were randomized to TI or IA. The primary end point was an HbA1C change from baseline, with the differences analyzed by equivalence analyses.ResultsIn the overall cohort (N = 309; males, 23.3%), mean (SD) age was 58.5 (8.4) years, body mass index was 30.8 (4.7) kg/m2, weight was 82.2 (13.6) kg, and duration of diabetes was 12.2 (7.1) years. An intention-to-treat cohort had 150 subjects randomized to TI (mean [SD] HbA1C: 8.9% [1.1%]) and 154 randomized to IA (mean [SD] HbA1C: 9.0% [1.3%]). At 24 weeks, mean (SD) HbA1C value declined to 7.9% (1.3%) and 7.7% (1.1%) in the TI and IA cohorts, respectively. A treatment difference of 0.26% was not statistically significant, but the predefined equivalency margin was not met. Subjects receiving TI lost 0.78 kg compared to baseline; subjects receiving IA gained 0.23 kg (P =.0007). The incidence of mild/moderate hypoglycemia was lower for the TI cohort, though not statistically significant.ConclusionBoth TI and IA resulted in significant and clinically meaningful HbA1C reductions. TI also resulted in significant and clinically meaningful weight reductions. These data support the use of inhaled insulin as a treatment option for individuals with type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

ObjectiveWe compared the efficacy of the second-generation basal insulin degludec (IDeg) to that of insulin aspart via pump using continuous glucose monitoring in patients with well-controlled type 1 diabetes.MethodsIn this 40-week, single-center, randomized, crossover-controlled trial, adults with well-controlled type 1 diabetes (hemoglobin A1C of <7.5% [<58 mmol/mol]) (N = 52) who were using an insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring were randomized to 1 of 2 treatments for a 20-week period: a single daily injection of IDeg with bolus aspart via pump or a continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) with aspart, followed by crossover to the other treatment. The primary endpoint was time in range (70-180 mg/dL) during the final 2 weeks of each treatment period.ResultsFifty-two patients were randomized and completed both treatment periods. The time in range for IDeg and CSII was 71.5% and 70.9%, respectively (P = .553). The time in level 1 hypoglycemia for the 24-hour period with IDeg and CSII was 2.19% and 1.75%, respectively (P = .065). The time in level 2 hypoglycemia for the 24-hour period with IDeg and CSII was 0.355% and 0.271%, respectively (P = .212), and the nocturnal period was 0.330% and 0.381%, respectively (P = .639). The mean standard deviation of blood glucose levels for the 24-hour period for IDeg and CSII was 52.4 mg/dL and 51.0 mg/dL, respectively (P = .294). The final hemoglobin A1C level for each treatment was 7.04% (53 mmol/mol) with IDeg, and 6.95% (52 mmol/mol) with CSII (P = .288). Adverse events were similar between treatments.ConclusionWe observed similar glycemic control between IDeg and insulin aspart via CSII for basal insulin coverage in patients with well-controlled type 1 diabetes.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate which factors determine utilization patterns and outcomes of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) in young adults with type 1 diabetes.MethodsUtilizing the Optum deidentified electronic health record data set between 2008 to 2018 to perform a retrospective cohort study, we identified 2104 subjects with type 1 diabetes aged 18 to 30 years. We evaluated the effect of race on determining CSII utilization, HbA1c (%), and hospital admission for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Crude and adjusted estimates were computed using logistic regression and linear mixed models.ResultsThere was low CSII utilization among individuals who were Black, Hispanic, male, and those with governmental insurance. These groups also demonstrated higher HbA1c levels. Subjects who were Black, Hispanic, and those with governmental insurance had higher odds of DKA. Even when commercially insured, Black and Hispanic subjects demonstrated higher HbA1c levels, and Black individuals had higher odds of DKA.ConclusionIn a large electronic health record database in the U.S., there was low CSII utilization overall, particularly in Black and Hispanic minorities, despite CSII showing superior HbA1c control without an increase in DKA events.  相似文献

ObjectiveOur objective was to benchmark rates of guideline-concordant insulin infusion initiation, identify factors associated with guideline-concordant insulin practices, and examine the association between hospital-level guideline concordance and mortality among critically ill patients with sepsis.MethodsWe performed a multicenter retrospective cohort study of intensive care patients with sepsis who were eligible for insulin infusion initiation according to American Diabetes Association and Surviving Sepsis guidelines (persistent blood sugar ≥180 mg/dL). We then identified patients who were initiated on insulin infusions within 24 hours of eligibility. We examined patient- and hospital-level factors associated with guideline-concordant insulin infusion initiation and explored the association between the hospital-level proportion of patients who received guideline-concordant insulin infusions and hospital mortality.ResultsAmong 5453 guideline-eligible patients with sepsis, 13.4% were initiated on insulin infusions. Factors most strongly associated with guideline-concordant insulin infusion initiation were mechanical ventilation and hospital of admission. The hospital-level proportion of patients who received guideline-concordant insulin infusions were not associated with mortality. Among 1501 intensive care unit patients with sepsis who were started on insulin infusions, 37.0% were initiated at a blood glucose level below 180 mg/dL, the guideline-recommended starting threshold.ConclusionGuideline-concordant insulin infusion initiation was uncommon among patients with sepsis admitted to U.S. intensive care units and was determined in large part by hospital of admission. The degree to which hospitals were guideline-concordant were not associated with mortality.  相似文献

ObjectiveMany patients with type 2 diabetes treated with premixed insulin gradually have inadequate glycemic control and switch to a basal-bolus regimen, which raises some concerns for weight gain and increased hypoglycemic risk. Switching to combination use of glp-1 agonist and basal insulin may be an alternative option.MethodsAfter a 12-week premixed human insulin 70/30 dosage optimization period, 200 patients with HbA1c of 7.0% to 10.0% were randomized into 24-week treatment groups with exenatide twice a day plus glargine or with aspart 70/30 twice a day.ResultsAfter 24 weeks, the patients receiving exenatide plus glargine (n = 90) had improved HbA1c control compared with those receiving aspart 70/30 (n = 90) (least squares mean change: ‒0.59 vs ‒0.13%; difference [95% CI]: ‒0.45 [‒0.74 to ‒0.17]) in the full analysis set population. Weight decreased 3.5 kg with exenatide and decreased 0.4 kg with aspart 70/30 (P < .001). The insulin dose was reduced 10.7 units/day (95% CI, ‒12.2 to ‒9.2 units; P < .001) with exenatide, and increased 9.7 units/day (95% CI, 8.2 to 11.2 units; P < .001) with aspart 70/30. The most common adverse events were gastrointestinal adverse effects in the exenatide group (nausea [21%], vomiting [16%], diarrhea [13%]). The incidence of hypoglycemia was similar in 2 groups (27% for exenatide and 38% for aspart 70/30; P = .1).ConclusionIn premixed human insulin‒treated patients with type 2 diabetes with inadequate glycemic control, switching to exenatide twice a day plus glargine was superior to aspart 70/30 twice a day for glycemic and weight control.  相似文献

ObjectiveFrequent, finger-prick capillary blood glucose measurement is standard care, used to drive insulin infusion rates for inpatients being resuscitated from diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Over recent years there has been a shift toward continuous interstitial glucose monitoring, allowing monitoring of glucose without repeated invasive testing. While continuous interstitial glucose monitoring has been safely and reliably utilized in the outpatient setting, it has yet to be studied in acutely unwell patients with DKA. The aim of this study, allowing for physiologically lower interstitial compared to capillary glucose, was to determine if interstitial flash glucose monitoring (FGM) would lead to insulin infusion rates that were similar to capillary blood glucose (CapBG) in DKA.MethodsIn this study, 10 patients with diabetes mellitus, assessed to be in DKA, were enrolled. At the same time as standard DKA management commencement, simultaneous FGM measurements were obtained. Duplicate paired glucose readings were then analyzed for agreement.ResultsActual (CapBG-driven) and predicted (FGM determined) insulin infusion rates were similar. Minor differences in predicted insulin infusion rates were noted in 2/10 patients at higher glucose concentrations, which may relate to the lag in change in glucose in the interstitial space.ConclusionBased on our results, a trial of clinical outcomes in patients with DKA treated with insulin infusion rates driven by CapBG versus subcutaneous FGM appears justified. The FGM method of testing may improve patient comfort, obviate fatigue, improve staff time and direct patient contact, and potentially facilitate rapid discharge.  相似文献

ObjectiveRapid improvement in blood glucose (BG) after weight-loss surgery (WLS) can make postoperative glucose management challenging in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Our study examined the safety and efficacy of insulin management strategies during hospitalization and after discharge following WLS.MethodsThis single-center retrospective cohort study included 160 adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus undergoing WLS. Patients with glycated hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) level <7% (53 mmol/mol) and not on antihyperglycemic medications or metformin monotherapy were excluded. BG and insulin dosing during hospitalization and at 2-week follow-up, and impact of preoperative HbA1C level were analyzed.ResultsMean age was 46.3 years. Median preoperative HbA1C level was 8% (64 mmol/mol). Postoperatively, most patients received basal insulin plus sliding-scale insulin (SSI; 79/160, 49%) or SSI alone (77/160, 48%). The initial postoperative basal dose was 0.23 units/kg/day. The median basal insulin dose at discharge was 61% lower than preoperative dose. At 2-week follow-up, 34 of 44 patients (77%) had BG levels between 70-200 mg/dL and 1 of 44 (2.2%) had BG levels >200 mg/dL, with no hypoglycemia. Patients with HbA1C level >9% (75 mmol/mol) had higher BG on admission and during hospitalization, required higher insulin doses while hospitalized, and were more frequently discharged on insulin.ConclusionSSI is effective in managing BG in some patients immediately after WLS. However, about half of the patients may require basal insulin at doses similar to those required by other inpatients. Preoperative hyperglycemia may affect inpatient insulin needs and BG. Low-dose basal insulin appears safe and effective upon discharge for select patients.  相似文献

ObjectiveSevere insulin resistance syndromes, such as lipodystrophy, lead to diabetes, which is challenging to control. This study explored the safety and efficacy of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) in a series of 12 patients with severe insulin resistance due to partial lipodystrophy.MethodsA retrospective chart review of the safety (N = 22) and efficacy (N = 12) of SGLT2is in patients with partial lipodystrophy was conducted at our institution. The efficacy outcomes included hemoglobin A1C level, insulin dose, fasting plasma glucose level, C-peptide level, lipid profile, 24-hour urinary glucose excretion, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and blood pressure before and after 12 months of SGLT2i treatment.ResultsThe hemoglobin A1C level decreased after SGLT2i treatment (at baseline: 9.2% ± 2.0% [77.0 ± 21.9 mmol/mol]; after 12 months: 8.4% ± 1.8% [68.0 ± 19.7 mmol/mol]; P = .028). Significant reductions were also noted in systolic (P = .011) and diastolic blood pressure (P = .013). There was a trend toward a decreased C-peptide level (P = .071). The fasting plasma glucose level, lipid level, and estimated glomerular filtration rate remained unchanged. The adverse effects included extremity pain, hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis (in a patient who was nonadherent to insulin), pancreatitis (in a patient with prior pancreatitis), and fungal infections.ConclusionSGLT2is reduced the hemoglobin A1C level in patients with partial lipodystrophy, with a similar safety profile compared with that in patients with type 2 diabetes. After individual consideration of the risks and benefits of SGLT2is, these may be considered a part of the treatment armamentarium for these rare forms of diabetes, but larger trials are needed to confirm these findings.  相似文献
