Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of any hypoglycaemic event

    In the 4 weeks prior to and following the baseline visit (Week 0)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Difference in the reported incidence rates of any hypoglycaemia

    In the 4 weeks prior to (Part 1) versus following (Part 2) the baseline visit

  • Incidence of hypoglycaemic events requiring hospital admission

    In the 6 months prior to and 4 weeks following the baseline visit

  • Incidence of all severe hypoglycaemic events

    In the 6 months prior to and 4 weeks following the baseline visit

  • Incidence of probable symptomatic hypoglycaemic events

    In the 4 weeks prior to and following the baseline visit

Study Arms (1)

Insulin-treated patients with diabetes

Other: No treatment given

Interventions

Patients will be asked to complete a two-part patient self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ) comprising a retrospective cross-sectional evaluation (Part 1), and a prospective observational evaluation (Part 2).

Insulin-treated patients with diabetes
