Abstract:
Objective To investigate the prevalence of depression and its influencing factors in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)patients with long-term treatment of insulin pumps.Methods A total of 120 T2DM patients receiving long-term insulin pump treatment were enrolled,and 180 T2DM patients who received intensive insulin injection without pump in the same period were enrolled as controls.We assessed the depression in the two groups using Zung’s self rating scale.Results The depression scores of 32 patients with insulin pump were more than 0.50,and the depression prevalence of these patients was 26.67%,which was significantly lower than 48.89% in the control group (P < 0.05 ). The prevalence of moderate or severe depression was 3.33% and 1.67%, respectively,in the insulin pump group,which were considerably lower than the prevalence of 1 5.56% and 9.44%in the control group (P <0.05).Duration of DM and the number of complications might be independent risk factors of depression in DM patients with insulin pump.Conclusion Long-term use of insulin pump may effectively improve depressive state in T2DM patients through its optimal effect on maintaining blood glucose levels.
