Commentary on: Danne et al. Association Between Treatment Adherence and Continuous Glucose Monitoring Outcomes in People With Diabetes Using Smart Insulin Pens in a Real-World Setting. Diabetes Care. 2024.47 (6),:995-1003
Implications for practice and research Healthcare providers should emphasise consistent insulin adherence for people with diabetes, as even a few missed doses can worsen overall glycaemia. Future research should identify barriers to consistent usage of insulin and develop strategies to enable patients’ adherence, such as increasing patient engagement with smart insulin pens and continuous glucose monitoring systems.
Diabetes is a widespread chronic disease, with steadily rising prevalence in most countries. In 2019, the global prevalence of diabetes was estimated at 9.3%, affecting 463 million people. This figure is projected to rise to 10.2% by 2030 and 10.9% by 2045.
