12-Month Time in Tight Range Improvement with Advanced Hybrid-Closed Loop System in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes

Laura Nigi et al. Diabetes Ther. 2024 Dec.

Abstract

Introduction: Time in tight range (TITR) is an emerging and valuable metric for assessing normoglycemia. The latest advancement in automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, the advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) systems, are particularly noteworthy for managing type 1 diabetes (T1D) and enhancing glycemic control.

Methods: In a real-world clinical setting, we carried out a retrospective evaluation of TITR in 42 adult subjects with T1D using the AHCL Minimed™ 780G system over a 12-month period.

Results: Within just 14 days of activating the automatic mode, the AHCL Minimed™ 780G system showed rapid improvement in TITR, and in the other continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics. This improvement persisted over 12 months, achieving the proposed 45-50% range for effective glycemic control.

Conclusion: The AHCL Minimed™ 780G system significantly enhances TITR, demonstrating continuous improvement throughout a 12-month follow-up period.

Keywords: Advanced hybrid closed-loop systems; Continuous glucose monitoring metrics; Technology; Time in tight range; Type 1 diabetes.
