Changes in Altitude Cause Unintended Insulin Delivery From Insulin Pumps
OBJECTIVE Children and adults with type 1 diabetes who receive insulin pump therapy have reported hypoglycemia during air travel. We studied the effects of atmospheric pressure on insulin pump delivery. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Ten insulin pumps were connected to capillary tubes. The effects of changes in ambient pressure on insulin delivery, bubble formation, bubble size, and cartridge pl...
متن کاملInsulin pumps.
I nsulin pump therapy—continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII)—was developed in the UK in the 1970s. Rapid technological developments changed the initial pumps from the size of a house brick, charged by mains electricity to an acceptable dimension, battery driven. We described the use of pumps in young people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in the UK in Archives of Disease in Childhood in the...
متن کاملInsulin Therapy with Personal Insulin Pumps and Early Angiopathy in Children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
OBJECTIVE Assessment of the effect of a treatment method change from multiple daily insulin injection (MDI) to continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) on the development of early angiopathy in children with T1DM with or without retinopathy. METHODS The study pump group involved 32 diabetic children aged 14.8, with the initial HbA1c level of 8.3%, previously treated by MDI. The patient...
متن کاملContinuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy: A primer on insulin pumps.
OBJECTIVE To summarize the role, benefits, and risks of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) therapy for treating diabetes. DATA SOURCES A literature search was conducted in Medline (1996 to July 2008) using the search terms intensive insulin therapy, insulin pump, and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion. Reference lists from comprehensive review articles were also used to ide...
متن کاملEvaluation of an Ultrasonic Insulin Delivery System in Hyperglycemic Rabbits
Introduction: Sonophoresis has been assessed as a novel approach to create skin permeability and drug delivery using low frequencies of ultrasound waves in the range of 20 kHz to 3 MHz. In this study, a system including seven 40 kHz piezoelectric transducers and an insulin chamber designed by the Medical Physics Research Center has been evaluated on hyperglycemic rabbits. Materials and Methods:...
