Open-source Artificial Pancreas Systems Are Safe and Effective When Supported In-clinic: Outcomes in 248 Consecutive Type 1 Diabetes Clients.

Objective: Our aim in this study was to determine the safety, glycemia, and quality of life (QoL) associated with in-clinic installation and management of supported open-source artificial pancreas systems (SOSAPS) in type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Methods: This investigation is a retrospective cohort study of consecutive SOSAPS users at a Canadian diabetes centre. SOSAPS were offered to all moderately tech-savvy T1D clients on sensor-augmented multiple daily injection or pump, able to pay for hardware, and willing to sign a consent and waiver document.
