| Insulin Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (ITSQ) | At Week 24 | ITSQ is a validated instrument containing 22 items that assess treatment satisfaction for participants with diabetes and on insulin. Items divided into 5 domains of satisfaction: Inconvenience of Regimen \[(IR) 5 items: domain scores range (DSR) 5-35\], Lifestyle Flexibility \[(LF) 3 items: DSR 3-21\], Glycemic Control \[(GC) 3 items: DSR 3-21\], Hypoglycemic Control \[(HC) 5 items: DSR 5-35\], Insulin Delivery Device \[(IDD) 6 items: DSR 6-42\]. All items measured on a 7-point scale: 1 (no bother at all) to 7 (a tremendous bother), with lower scores reflecting better outcomes. ITSQ Total Overall Raw Scores range from 22-154. Both raw domain and overall scores are transformed on a scale of 0-100, where transformed score=100\*\[(7-mean raw score)/6\]. Higher scores indicate better treatment satisfaction.
