A Multicenter Prospective Evaluation of the Benefits of Two Advanced Hybrid Closed-Loop Systems in Glucose Control and Patient-Reported Outcomes in a Real-world Setting.

OBJECTIVE: Advanced hybrid closed-loop systems (AHCL) have been shown to improve glycemic control and patient-reported outcomes in type 1 diabetes. The aim was to analyze the outcomes of two commercially available AHCL in real life. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A prospective study was performed, including adolescents and adults with type 1 diabetes, AHCL naïve, from 14 centers, who initiated the use of MM780G with SmartGuard or Tandem t:slimX2 with Control-IQ. Baseline and 3-month evaluations were performed, assessing HbA1c, time in different glycemic ranges, and patient-reported outcomes. The primary outcome was the between-group time in range 70-180 mg/dL difference from beginning to end of follow-up. RESULTS: One hundred fifty participants were included, with 75 initiating each system (age: 39.9 ± 11.4 years [16-72]; 64% female; diabetes duration: 21.6 ± 11.9 years). Time in range increased from 61.53 ± 14.01% to 76.17 ± 9.48% (P < 0.001), with no between-group differences (P = 0.591). HbA1c decreased by 0.56% (95% CI 0.44%, 0.68%) (6 mmol/mol, 95% CI 5, 7) (P < 0.001), from 7.43 ± 1.07% to 6.88 ± 0.60% (58 ± 12 to 52 ± 7 mmol/mol) in the MM780G group, and from 7.14 ± 0.70% to 6.56 ± 0.53% (55 ± 8 to 48 ± 6 mmol/mol) in the Control-IQ group (both P < 0.001 to baseline, P = 0.819 between groups). No superiority of one AHCL over the other regarding fear of hypoglycemia or quality of life was found. Improvement in diabetes-related distress was higher in Control-IQ users (P = 0.012). Sleep quality was improved (PSQI: from 6.94 ± 4.06 to 6.06 ± 4.05, P = 0.004), without differences between systems. Experience with AHCL, evaluated by the INSPIRE measures, exceeded the expectations. CONCLUSIONS: The two AHCL provide significant improvement in glucose control and satisfaction, with no superiority of one AHCL over the other.

Efficiency of chlorhexidine-silver sulfadiazine-impregnated venous catheters at subclavian sites.

BACKGROUND: Cost-effectiveness analyses show that chlorhexidine-silver sulfadiazine (CHSS)-impregnated catheters reduce catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) and central venous catheter (CVC)-related costs. However, no studies have reported the efficiency of CHSS-impregnated catheters for venous access when the risk of CRBSI is low; for example, at the subclavian site. This study determined the cost of a CVC, diagnosis of CRBSI, and antimicrobial agents to treat CRBSI; we did not consider the cost of increased hospital stay. METHODS: This retrospective study included patients admitted to the intensive care unit at Hospital Universitario de Canarias (Tenerife, Spain) who had a subclavian venous catheter. RESULTS: Patients with CHSS catheters (n = 353) had a lower incidence density of CRBSI (2.12 vs 0 out of 1,000 catheter-days; P = .02) and lower CVC-related cost per catheter-day (3.35 ± 3.75 vs 3.94 ± 9.95; P = .002) than those with standard catheters (n = 518). CHSS-impregnated catheters were associated with a lower risk of CRBSI (exact logistic regression) (odds ratio, 0.10; 95% confidence interval, -∞ to 0.667; P = .008) than standard catheters when controlling for catheter duration. CHSS-impregnated catheters were also associated with a lower CVC-related cost per catheter day than standard catheters (Poisson regression) (odds ratio, 0.85; 95% confidence interval, 0.001-0.873; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: CHSS-impregnated catheters may be efficient in preventing CRBSI in patients with subclavian venous access.
