UNASSIGNED: We report a case series of 4 patients with type 1 diabetes who used hybrid closed-loop insulin pumps (Medtronic MiniMed 670 G) during hospitalization.
UNASSIGNED: Clinical data and point-of-care glucose values are presented for each patient. Glucose values are shown graphically while in manual mode as well as in auto mode.
UNASSIGNED: The first case was a 30-year-old man admitted for pancreatitis. Mean point-of-care blood glucose was 165.7 mg/dL while in auto mode, without hypoglycemia, compared with 221 mg/dL while in manual mode. The second case was a 28-year-old woman who was admitted for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mean point-of-care blood glucose in auto mode was 131.3 mg/dL, without hypoglycemia, compared with 117.6 mg/dL while in manual mode. The third case was a 46-year-old man admitted to the intensive care unit for influenzal pneumonia. Mean point-of-care blood glucose in auto mode was 159.1 mg/dL without hypoglycemia, compared with 218.5 mg/dL while in manual mode. The fourth case was a 60-year-old man who remained in auto mode throughout his hospitalization except for a period when he removed his pump for an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic ultrasound. His mean point-of-care blood glucose while in auto mode was 156.8 mg/dL without hypoglycemia.
UNASSIGNED: These case reports support the use of hybrid closed-loop insulin-pump therapy in the inpatient setting to maintain inpatient glycemic targets and avoid hypoglycemia when part of an institution-sanctioned strategy for safe use of insulin pumps that includes point-of-care blood glucose monitoring.

UNASSIGNED: Hybrid closed-loop (HCL) devices can achieve tight glycemic control but are rarely used in pregnancy, which remains an off-label indication. We present a case of a pregnant patient with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) who used the Medtronic MiniMed 670G HCL system.
UNASSIGNED: MiniMed 670G includes an advanced automode option (HCL therapy), which our patient used from the first trimester to the end of the pregnancy.
UNASSIGNED: An unplanned pregnancy was detected in the T1DM patient, with a glycated hemoglobin level of 8.7 mmol/L (7.1%). The patient started sensor-augmented pump therapy at week 13. Subsequently, she entered automode (HCL) at week 16. The time in range (3.7-7.8 mmol/mol, 63-140 mg/dL) increased from 46.8% to 51.3% after HCL initiation. The glycated hemoglobin level remained close to 48 mmol/mol (6.5%) until the end of the pregnancy. Furthermore, the time under range (<3.7 mmol/mol, <63 mg/dL) remained below the optimal 4% level during the gestation. Finally, a healthy male baby was born at week 37. No safety events were recorded.
UNASSIGNED: This case represents the successful off-label use of HCL during pregnancy in a patient with T1DM.
