A quality-of-life assessment of intensive insulin therapy using insulin lispro switched from short-acting insulin and measured by an ITR-QOL questionnaire: a prospective comparison of multiple daily insulin injections and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion

We examined quality-of-life (QOL) of patients with a prospective comparison of multiple daily insulin injections therapy (16 patients in MDI group) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy (12 patients in CSII group) using insulin lispro (LP), which was switched from short-acting insulin...

Description
Summary:We examined quality-of-life (QOL) of patients with a prospective comparison of multiple daily insulin injections therapy (16 patients in MDI group) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy (12 patients in CSII group) using insulin lispro (LP), which was switched from short-acting insulin on the basis of a questionnaire about insulin-therapy-related QOL measure (ITR-QOL). The overall score of ITR-QOL before using LP in the CSII group was significantly higher ( P
