Key Features of Insulin Delivery Devices for Type 2 Diabetes: Type 2.0 Booth Survey

Perceptions of Usability and Design for Prefilled Insulin Delivery Devices for Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Starting insulin therapy for type-2 diabetes.

Controlling blood glucose level for diabetic patients can be accomplished by using several methods, such as life style modification, oral medication, and insulin. Many physicians are still hesitant to administer insulin. A great deal of this hesitancy is caused by lack of knowledge on how to practically giving insulin. If administrated correctly, insulin is one of means that effectively control...

Insulin Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes

Insulin therapy provides effective glycemic control in patients with diabetes who have deficient beta-cell function and insulin secretion. Subjects with type 2 diabetes not adequately controlled on oral agents or incretin therapies can initiate basal insulin replacement to correct fasting hyperglycemia. While all basal insulin preparations have similar efficacy in lowering fasting plasma glucos...

Insulin Pump for Type 2 Diabetes

P rogressive hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes results from a progressive b-cell failure together with a state of insulin resistance (1). Insulin deficiency worsens with the natural progression of type 2 diabetes, explaining the escape from oral antihyperglycemic agents and the need for exogenous insulin therapy (2). The use of external pumps in patients with type 2 diabetes is a recent practice...

Insulin pump therapy for type 2 diabetes.

Insulin pump therapy, or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion, has become an increasingly popular mode of therapy for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Although the benefits of insulin pump therapy, such as less glycemic variability and a more flexible lifestyle, should be similar for patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, data on the use of insulin pump therapy in patient...
