276-OR: Postprandial Hyper- and Hypoglycemia Are Related to Injection Time—An Insulclock Connected Insulin Cap–Based Real-World Study

Abstract

Background: Reaching the optimal postprandial glucose dynamics is a daily challenge for people with T1D. The study aimed to analyze postprandial hyperglycemia excursion (PHE) and late postprandial hypoglycemia (LPH) risk according to insulin injection time. Methods: Real-world, retrospective study in T1D using multiple daily injection (MDI) insulin. Five hours of paired CGM and automatically tracked insulin injections were collected with the Insulclock® connected cap. Meal events were identified using the ROC detection methodology. Postprandial glucometrics and LPH (glucose <70 mg/dL 2-5 hours after a meal) were evaluated according to insulin injection time. Results: Meal glycemic excursions (n=2784) were analyzed in 82 people. In 63% insulin was injected after the meal started. The best balance between PHE control and LPH risk is obtained by injecting -15 to 0 minutes before meals. Higher PHE (glucose peak-baseline; mg/dL) was observed in delayed injections (mean±SD): Early (-45-15 min) (n=348) 101.8 ± 34.0; Optimal (-15-0 min)(n=612) 98.3± 29.8; Delayed (0-+45 min) (n=1528) 114.8±40,2 (n=348), (p <0.001). LPH risk also increased with delayed injections, n (%): Early 31 (8.9); Optimal 47 (7.7); Delayed 171 (11.2), (p 0.038). Conclusion: The correct timing of insulin injection is crucial to reduce postprandial hyper- and hypoglycemia.
