Associations Between Improved Glucose Control and Patient-Reported Outcomes After Initiation of Insulin Pump Therapy in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Findings suggest that A1C, representing an "average" of both high and low blood glucose values throughout the day, may not capture aspects of glucose control with the greatest impact on HR-QoL. Although TxSat was more strongly associated with A1C and mean glucose readings than with glycemic variability, HR-QoL was more strongly associated with glycemic variability.
