About
To examine the effect of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on metabolic control, in a large population-based nationwide observational study under real life conditions.
All children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes are investigated,using annual data in 2017 from the population-based Norwegian Childhood Diabetes Registry (NCDR). HbA1c, incidence of diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA) and severe hypoglycemia (SH) are evaluated depending on the use of CSII and CGM in a linear mixed-effects and linear regression model adjusted for age, biologic gender and diabetes duration. Health-related quality of Life (HRQOL) is assessed by using the DISABKIDS diabetes specific module (DDM-10), and associations with the use of CSII, CGM, age, gender and diabetes duration are evaluated.
Full description
In Norway, all children with diabetes 0-18 years should, due to a recommendation from the national health care authority, receive their diabetes follow-up in a pediatric department. All pediatric departments participate in the NCDR reporting standardized clinical data on their patients to the NCDR, at diabetes onset and annually, until the patients reach 18 years of age. The data completeness of NCDR is high, on individual level 99 % at diabetes onset, and 98 % on the annual examinations in 2016 - 2017.
In addition, HRQOL data were collected in 2017, using the DISABKIDS diabetes specific module (DDM-10). Children 10-17 years with type 1 diabetes were invited to independently fill out the questionnaire regarding their own disease-related quality of life. All parents to children with type 1 diabetes (independent of the child's age) were invited to fill out the same questionnaire, giving a proxy evaluation of their child's quality of life.
