Type 1 Diabetes
Conditions
Brief summary
Prospective observational study to analyse the clinical effectiveness of a diabetes educational program to improve intermittently continuous glucose monitoring (iCGM) adherence in adult type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients
Detailed description
Cross-sectional prospective analysis of clinical efectiveness of a diabetes educational program to improve intermittently continuous glucose monitoring (iCGM) adherence in adult type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients. Glycometric data obtained through deidentified downloads from isCGM´s webpage. Primary outcome was time in range (TIR) 3.0-10 mmol/L (70-180 mg/d) change after the heatwave. Data analysis is conducted using SPSS (Chicago, IL) statistics software. Results are presented as mean ± SD values or percentages. A paired Student's t-test or a Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used for the analysis of differences. Comparisons between proportions were analyzed using a chi-squared test. A P value \< 0.05 was considered statistically significant. The protocol was approved by the reference Castilla-La Mancha Public Health Institute Ethic Committee (C-558).
