Acute Metabolic Outcomes in Diabetic Patients Hospitalized for COVID-19 (DMD-COV)
Sponsor: Algerian Society of Diabetology
Summary
Diabetes is a major risk factor for severe COVID-19 and poor clinical outcomes during hospitalization. However, little is known about the medium- and long-term metabolic consequences of COVID-19 in people with diabetes after hospital discharge. The DMD-COV study is a prospective, multicenter observational cohort conducted in Algeria. Its aim is to evaluate the cardio-metabolic outcomes of adult patients with diabetes who were hospitalized for confirmed COVID-19 and survived the acute phase of the infection. Adult patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes will be included during hospitalization or within 30 days after hospital discharge. Participants will be followed for up to one year after discharge, with scheduled evaluations at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. During follow-up, clinical, biological, and therapeutic data will be collected, including glycemic control (HbA1c), body weight, lipid profile, kidney function, and diabetes treatments. The main outcome is the proportion of patients achieving their individualized HbA1c target at 6 months and 12 months after hospitalization for COVID-19. The results of this study will help to better understand the long-term metabolic impact of COVID-19 in people with diabetes and to improve post-COVID diabetes management.
