Abstract Objectives Aim of the Study: (Instructions: state the goal you need to achieve) Evaluate the quality of life in children with type 1 diabetes. Specific Objectives: (Instructions: state the details of each objective that will finally lead to achievement of the goal) 1. To assess the quality of life in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes using the HR-QOL questionnaire. 2. To determine the characteristics associated with quality of life in children with type 1 diabetes. Methods A descriptive cross-sectional study done in Pediatric Endocrinology clinic at the King Abdullah Specialist Children Hospital (KASCH). Quality of life was evaluated during a personal interview with each patient using the diabetes- specific quality of life (QOL) tool KINDL-R Diabetes Module (DM). The questionnaire consists of 41 items related to quality of life and diabetes. Demographics, anthropometric measurements, and HbA1c were reviewed from patient records. Results Overall quality of life was good with average score of (67.9%). There was no statistical difference between males and females in sub scale scores such as physical and emotional well-being. Also, there was no significant correlation between HbA1c, BMI and sub scale scores. Conclusions Poor glycemic control, BMI, and sex were not associated with worse QoL. Further studies to determine the optimal cut points for QoL scales are needed to identify T1D patients with poor QoL. Funding Sources in NGHA Riyadh.

Aim. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to determine the rates of diabetes device use (insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor (CGM)) and association with glycemic control in youth with type 1 diabetes in a large, diverse pediatric center. Methods. Demographic and clinical data were obtained from 1992 patients who met the eligibility criteria (age < 26 years, diabetes duration ≥ 1 year, and ≥1 clinic visit in the preceding 12 months). Statistical analyses assessed the likelihood of device use based on demographic characteristics and the association between device use and glycemic control based on most recent hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Results. Mean age was 13.8 ± 4.2 years, 50.7% were female, diabetes duration was 6.2 ± 4 years, and mean HbA1c was 8.7 ± 1.8%. Overall, 38.2% of patients were on pump therapy and 18.5% were on CGM. Patients who were non-Hispanic (NH) white, privately insured, and with primary English-speaking parent(s) had higher rates of insulin pump use, as well as CGM use (P<0.001 for both). Female patients had higher rates of pump use only (P<0.01). Private health insurance, NH white race/ethnicity, and CGM use were each associated with lower HbA1c (P=0.03, <0.001, and <0.008, resp.). Conclusion. At a large, diverse, pediatric diabetes center, disparities in diabetes device use were present across sex, race/ethnicity, health insurance coverage, and primary language of parent(s). CGM use was associated with lower HbA1c. Quality improvement efforts are underway to ensure improved access, education, and clinical programs for advanced diabetes devices for T1D patients.
