contents Comparing long‐term outcomes of children treated with new‐onset type 2 diabetes in an outpatient versus inpatient setting: A retrospective chart review Adesh Ranganna Wenya Chen Sean DeLacey Juan Lado Laura Levin Anita Swamy Monica E. Bianco Journal of Diabetes AbstractBackgroundEarly identification and management of pediatric type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is crucial for improving long‐term outcomes. This study aimed to assess if the severity of T2DM at presentation, inferred by the location of treatment initiation (inpatient or outpatient), influences long‐term clinical outcomes.MethodsA retrospective chart review was conducted on 116 pediatric T2DM patients. Data on treatment initiation location, initial and subsequent glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, prescribed insulin, and body mass index were collected from electronic medical records.ResultsOf the 116 patients, 69 were initially treated in an inpatient setting, and 47 received outpatient treatment. At treatment initiation, the inpatient group had significantly higher HbA1c levels compared to the outpatient group (p < .001), but 3 years after treatment initiation, no significant difference in HbA1c was observed between the two groups (p = .057). Prescribed insulin dosages were higher in the inpatient group at treatment initiation (p < .001) and remained higher after 3 years (p < 0.003) compared to the outpatient group.ConclusionsPediatric patients initially treated in an inpatient setting had poorer glycemic control and higher prescribed insulin dosing at baseline. After 3 years, there was no significant difference in HbA1c levels, but patients treated as inpatients continued to have higher prescribed insulin. These findings suggest that the severity of diabetes at initial presentation may affect long‐term clinical outcomes in children with T2DM.image 10.1111/1753-0407.13571 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
