Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Informed consent will be obtained before any study-related activities. Study-related activities are any data collection from the medical records of the patient
  • Age at least 18 years at the time of Tresiba® initiation
  • T1DM or insulin-treated T2DM patients
  • Switched to Tresiba® (with or without prandial insulin) after any basal insulin (with or without prandial insulin). Switch must have occurred at least 6 months prior to data collection and the patient may or may not be treated with Tresiba® at the time of patient selection
  • Previously treated with any basal insulin (with or without prandial insulin) for at least 6 months prior to switching to Tresiba®
  • At least one documented medical visit in the first 9 months after Tresiba® initiation
  • Minimum available data at the time of Tresiba® initiation: age, type of diabetes, HbA1c (Glycated haemoglobin), duration of diabetes, duration and type of insulin treatment, medical follow-up at the study site of at least 1 year, and an eGFR (Estimated glomerular filtration rate )value in the last 12 months

Exclusion criteria

  • Previous participation in this study. Participation is defined as having signed the Informed Consent
  • Participation in a diabetes clinical trial or receipt of any investigational medicinal product up to 12 months before or any time after the initiation of Tresiba®
  • Current participation in another non-interventional study on insulin degludec (Tresiba®)
  • Patients treated by continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion or premix insulin in the 6 months prior to receiving Tresiba®

Treatment and study plan

No treatment given

Other

Information will be collected from the medical records (paper/electronic) of each patient at several outpatient clinics to describe the two periods of medical history: before and after the initiation date of Tresiba®. For each patient, data will be collected, to describe a minimum of 6 months to a maximum of 12 months in each period; thus, the study will collect information on 12 to 24 months of medical history for each patient.
