Little is known about the rates of acute complications when switching from MDI or traditional insulin pumps to tubeless insulin pump therapy. The German/Austrian Diabetes patients follow-up-registry (DPV) includes 2691 patients with type 1 (n=2640), type 2 (n=17) and LADA/other (n=34) diabetes types treated for 1.3±1.3 years with a tubeless insulin pump (Omnipod® Insulin Management System, Insulet Corp, Billerica, MA) since 2013. Patients with type 1 diabetes had a mean age of 12.3 year [IQR 9.6-15.0], diabetes duration 2.5 year [0.7-5.9], HbA1c 7.7% [6.8-8.3]. The prior treatment modality was 59.3% MDI, 37.5% other pump and 2.4% tubeless pump as initial therapy (0.3% unknown). Discontinuation of tubeless pump treatment in patients with type 1 diabetes was 7.3% and occurred after 0.7±0.9 mo. Despite the typical age-dependent increase in HbA1c in this primarily adolescent population, the rate of severe hypoglycemia (Level 3), hypoglycemic coma and DKA decreased between 29% to 76% with Omnipod System use compared to the year prior to treatment switch in the total cohort and type 1 patients with 3 year follow-up (n=835) (Table). In conclusion, analysis of the DPV registry shows that use of the Omnipod System has high treatment retention rates in type 1 diabetes and is associated with low rates of severe hypoglycemia and DKA in this age-group prone to acute complications.
