The purpose of the study is to collect information on how semaglutide works in real world patients. Participants will get semaglutide prescribed to them by their doctor. The study will last for about 6 to 8 months. Participants will be asked to complete some questionnaires about their health and diabetes treatment. Participants will complete these during their normally scheduled visits with their doctor.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
230
Patients will be treated with commercially available semaglutide in a prefilled pen injector (FlexTouch® variant) according to routine local clinical practice at the discretion of the treating physician. Other anti-hyperglycaemic treatments will be prescribed at the physician's discretion.The decision to initiate treatment with semaglutide is at the treating physician's discretion, and clearly separated from the decision to include the patient in the study.

Change in score for Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire - Status (DTSQs) (absolute treatment satisfaction): Total treatment satisfaction
The status version (DTSQs) provides a measure of how satisfied patients are with their current diabetes treatment. It consists of 8 questions, which are to be answered on a Likert scale from 0 to 6 (0 = very dissatisfied to 6 = very satisfied). Six questions are summed to produce a total Treatment Satisfaction score. The remaining two questions are concerning perceived frequency of hyperglycaemia and perceived frequency of hypoglycaemia, respectively.
Time frame: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38)
Change in score for Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire - Change (DTSQc) (relative treatment satisfaction): Total treatment satisfaction )
The change version (DTSQc) has the same 8 items as the status version, but is reworded to direct the patients to compare the experience of the current treatment with the experience of previous treatment. Each question is scored on a scale of -3 to +3 (-3 = much less satisfied now to +3 = much more satisfied now), with 0 (midpoint), representing no change.
Time frame: Baseline (week 0), end of study (week 28 to 38
Change in score for Short Form (SF)-36 v2: Physical summary component
The SF-36®v2 questionnaire has 36 questions grouped into eight domains termed: physical functioning, bodily pain, role-physical, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional and mental health, which again can be combined to give two summary component scores (overall mental- and physical health).
