Abstract:
Objective To develope a clinical decision support system(CDSS)on insulin titration and validate its effectiveness and safety.Methods Eighty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated at the Department of Endocrinology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January 2021 to July 2023,who had difficulty in achieving glycemic control on the basis of lifestyle interventions and oral hypoglycemic drug treatments,were selected for the study.The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group using a random number table,with 40 cases in each group.Patients in both groups received oral metformin extended-release tablets,subcutaneous insulin degludec before bedtime,and subcutaneous aspartate insulin injection before three meals for glycemic control.Patients in the observation group were given insulin titration using the CDSS,and patients in the control group were given insulin titration using the conventional method.The retrospective continuous glucose monitoring system was used to monitor time in range(TIR)for glucose,mean amplitude of glycemic excursion(MAGE),mean blood glucose(MBG),standard deviation of blood glucose(SDBG),and the coefficient of variation(CV)of blood glucose.Fasting blood glucose(FBG),2-hour postprandial glucose(2hPG),length of hospitalization,time to achieve standard blood glucose control,and incidence of hypoglycemia of patients were recorded before and after treatment in the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in FBG and 2hPG of patients between the two groups before treat-ment(P＞0.05).The FBG and 2hPG levels of patients in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05).The FBG and 2hPG levels of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group after treatment(P＜0.05).TIR of patients in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group,while MAGE,MBG,SDBG,and CV were significantly lower than those in the control group after treatment(P＜0.05).The length of hospitalization was 9.0(7.3,10.0)days and 11.0(8.3,12.0)days of patients in the observation group and control group,respectively;and the length of hospitalization of patients in the control group was significantly longer than that in the observation group(Z=-2.408,P＜0.05).The time required to achieve glycemic control was 6.5(5.0,8.8)days and 7.5(6.0,10.0)days of patients in the observation group and control group,respectively;and the time required to achieve glycemic control of patients in the control group was significantly longer than that in the observation group(Z=-2.019,P＜0.05).The incidence of hypoglycemia of patients in the observation group and control group was 20.0％(8/40),12.5％(5/40),respectively;there was no significant difference in the incidence of hypoglycemia between the observation group and the control group(x2=0.827,P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with the conventional titration of insulin,the application of CDSS can provide decision support during the implementation of a basal-meal insulin regimen,which can lead to more effective glycemic control,improved glucose TIR,reduced glycemic fluctuations,shorter time required for patients to achieve glycemic control,and shorter hospital stays without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia.
