Summary

This study aims to address persistent challenges in achieving recommended control goals for patients with type 1 diabetes through innovative interventions. Specifically, the research focuses on assessing the effectiveness of smart insulin pens combined with glucose monitoring devices as a promising treatment option for individuals on multiple daily insulin injections. The study will analyze electronic health records from adults (≥ 18 years) attending the Diabetes Unit of the University Clinical Hospital of Valencia. Participants who are or have used smart insulin pens will be compared with a control group matched for age, sex, duration of diabetes, and HbA1c value at baseline (1:1). Data will be collected on participant characteristics, smart pen usage, glycemic control parameters, and daily insulin doses. The study also aims to identify adverse events associated with the use of smart pens. Ethical considerations include ensuring the anonymity of participant data, and the study is designed to comply with European (EU) data protection regulations. The retrospective nature ensures no interference with physicians' prescription habits.
