Commissioners and providers should make insulin pumps available for those people with Type 1 diabetes who meet the criteria in the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence\u2019s technology appraisal guidance on continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion for the treatment of diabetes mellitus (TA151) as well as ensuring that relevant structured patient education is provided to support people newly diagnosed with diabetes and at appropriate points in their life as their condition progresses.<\/p>

Information on the number of people using insulin pumps is not collected centrally.<\/p>

The United Kingdom Insulin Pump Audit, published in May 2013, collected data from across the United Kingdom. The audit demonstrated that 6% of adults with Type 1 diabetes and 19% of children with Type 1 diabetes were being treated with insulin pumps. The audit\u2019s findings are available at:<\/p>

NHS England surveys capture the experiences of people with a wide range of conditions including diabetes but, with the exception of the cancer patient experience survey, they are not condition specific. As part of a forthcoming review of patient experience surveys, NHS England will consider whether it is best to collect information as it does currently or by specific conditions.<\/p>

Professor Jonathan Valabhji, the National Clinical Director, has reported that last year\u2019s Patient Experience of Diabetes Services pilot survey, which collected information from people with diabetes about their care, received very positive feedback.<\/p>

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the independent regulator of health and adult social care in England.<\/p>

A copy of the information requested has been attached.<\/p>

<\/p>
<\/p>
The CQC has advised that the attached dataset contains the breakdown (at National Health Service acute provider and clinical commissioning group (CCG) level) of bespoke analysis carried out by the CQC as part of the 'Thematic data review of diabetes care pathways: secondary care analysis comparing people with and without diabetes' that was published alongside the CQC's 2013/14 State of Care report on 16 October 2014.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The analysis compares the outcomes within each provider or CCG for people with diabetes against a reference group of similar people without diabetes. It is not a comparison of performance between providers or CCGs and it would be inappropriate to use the data in this way. The analysis at provider and CCG level should be treated as experimental and the measures should not be considered as judgements of providers or CCGs.<\/p>

Any solution has to be legally viable since we cannot ban testing which may be required under UK or EU law. The solution we develop must not preclude research that is a lawful requirement nor that which has significant benefits to people, the environment or animals. Nor should it drive research overseas.
There is, at present, no authoritative definition of household products in the United Kingdom or European legislation. Through stakeholder engagement we are seeking to develop an agreed definition.<\/p>
