Abstrakt: Aims: The goal of the study was to determine whether continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) differs from a multiple daily injection (MDI) regimen based on neutral protamine hagedorn (NPH) as basal insulin with respect to glycaemic control and quality of life in people with Type 1 diabetes.
Methods: The 5-Nations trial was a randomized, controlled, crossover trial conducted in 11 European centres. Two hundred and seventy-two patients were treated with CSII or MDI during a 2-month run-in period followed by a 6-month treatment period, respectively. The quality of glycaemic control was assessed by HbA(1c), blood glucose values, and the frequency of hypoglycaemic events. For the evaluation of the quality of life, three different self-report questionnaires have been assessed.
Results: CSII treatment resulted in lower HbA(1c) (7.45 vs. 7.67%, P < 0.001), mean blood glucose level (8.6 vs. 9.4 mmol/l, P < 0.001) and less fluctuation in blood glucose levels than MDI (+/- 3.9 vs. +/- 4.3 mmol/l, P < 0.001). There was a marked reduction in the frequency of hypoglycaemic events using CSII compared with MDI, with an incidence ratio of 1.12 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.08-1.17] and 2.61 (95% CI: 1.59-4.29) for mild and severe hypoglycaemia, respectively. The overall score of the diabetes quality of life questionnaire was higher for CSII (P < 0.001), and an improvement in pump users' perception of mental health was detected when using the SF-12 questionnaire (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: CSII usage offers significant benefits over NPH-based MDI for individuals with Type 1 diabetes, with improvement in all significant metabolic parameters as well as in patients' quality of life. Additional studies are needed to compare CSII with glargine- and detemir-based MDI.
