چکیده

As suboptimal blood glucose control has a lasting harmful effect even if control improves later, intensive insulin therapy to minimise hyperglycaemia is now recommended for all patients with type 1 diabetes. The new rapid- and long-acting insulin analogues offer more physiological insulin profiles than traditional insulin preparations. Continuous insulin infusion ("pump therapy") may provide a solution for some patients with frequent hypoglycaemia or hypoglycaemic unawareness. Continuous blood glucose monitoring reveals postprandial hyperglycaemia and asymptomatic nocturnal hypoglycaemia and may be especially useful for programming overnight basal insulin rates for pump therapy. In type 2 diabetes, management should change with disease progression; introduction of insulin should not be delayed if metabolic control becomes suboptimal.
