Science Pearls
Comparison between two commercial automated insulin delivery (AID) systems (Medtronic 670G/770G as a first-generation AID vs. Tandem Control-IQ as a second-generation AID with auto-correction feature) remains scarce. We conducted this post-hoc analysis of a prospective, observational, real-world study involving 52 adults with T1D (63% females). The findings suggested that compared with the first-generation AID system, the second-generation AID system achieved a higher time in range, mainly due to less time spent in hyperglycemia, among adults with type 1 diabetes in real-world settings. The benefits of less hyperglycemia may be mainly attributed to the auto-correction feature. This is the first study comparing two different brands of commercial AID systems.
