Health-Related Quality of Life and Treatment Satisfaction in the Sensor-Augmented Pump Therapy for A1C Reduction 3 (STAR 3) Trial

Abstract: Objective: This study assessed health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and treatment satisfaction in sensoraugmented pump therapy (SAPT) compared with optimal conventional therapy-multiple daily injection (MDI) therapy with self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG)-in adults and children with type 1 diabetes and children's caregivers. Patient acceptance of new therapies is essential to their adoption and effective use. Research Design and Methods: STAR 3, a randomized 12-month clinical trial, compared SAPT with M… Show more

“…Treatment satisfaction in those randomized to RT was no greater than in those continuing on conventional SMBG, in keeping with other studies reporting both benefits and hassles with RT (32). Our study demonstrated similar reduction in fear of hypoglycemia in all groups, whereas previous studies have tended to favor technology over MDI/SMBG regimens (33).…”

“…It could also impact quality of life and explain inconsistent related outcomes reported in previous studies. [15][16][17] The wider adoption of CGM technology still faces challenges related to cost, reliability, comfort, ease of use, and integration with other technologies. 18 A limitation specific to the Combo-Set itself is that there is a difference between the current recommendations for optimal duration for use of the insulin delivery catheter (3 days) and the glucose sensor (6 days).…”

“…62 Responders were also more likely than nonresponders to report their partner was interested in their CGM. 62 Several studies reported no QOL differences with SAPT, 57,61,63 but others found that SAPT improved diabetesspecific HRQOL (Hypoglycaemia Fear Survey Worry and Behaviour subscales) 58,59 and health and social functioning. 60 This is reassuring as there have been concerns that CGM data overload could have negative effects on QOL.…”
