AB - The aim of this study is to analyse whether certain psychological, biomedical and sociodemographic variables can predict the quality of life of patient with type 1 diabetes mellitus treated with Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII). Thirty three patients with DM1 completed a battery of psychological tests (DQOL, BDI, STAI and MHLC). Results indicate that anxiety, sex and complications are important variables that can explain the quality of life. Although glycemic control, locus of internal control or depression have not reached statistical significance in any of the models, they should not be rejected. These results suggest important implications for the integral treatment of these patients.
