Abstract

In an article in the Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology, Arunachalum et al retrospectively analyzed glycemic outcomes, regarding the use of hybrid closed-loop (HCL) systems in individuals with type-1 diabetes (T1D) in the United States in a real-world evidence (RWE) setting. In clinical trials, diabetes technology has shown to improve time in range (TIR) as well as other glucose metrics. In the light of increasing the use of diabetes technology in the T1D population, why do we not see improvement in clinical outcomes? Is it cost-effective to increase the use diabetes technology? Does access to diabetes technology vary in the United States? There is a need for additional clinical studies evaluating the effectiveness of diabetes technology in T1D including health economic aspects.
