Introduction

Advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) systems have demonstrated improved glycemic control in individuals with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. The aim of this study is to compare patient satisfaction among three available AHCL systems (Medtronic Minimed780 G, Roche Diabeloop DBLG1, and Tandem t:slim X2 Control IQ) after six months of treatment and to determine if it is related to glycemic control.

Methods

The data of 75 individuals were analyzed, including 15 using the DBLG1 system, 9 using Control IQ, and 51 using MM780 G. Patient satisfaction was assessed using the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Diabetes Mellitus (DTSQc), a validated instrument.

Results

All systems demonstrated treatment satisfaction. The DBLG-1 system scored 14 (-15-21) points, while Control IQ scored 21 (9-24) and M780 G scored 19 (11-24) (p = 0.004). The multivariate analysis revealed that the DBLG-1 system is associated with a lower DTSQc score (OR 0.19, p = 0.019) independent of glycemic control, sex, age, duration of diabetes, duration as an insulin pump user, and daily insulin dose.

Conclusion

AHCL systems are satisfactory treatments for users, with potential variations observed between each system regardless of the achieved glycemic control.
