Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInsulin Pump Therapy in Type 1 Diabetes-Merging Technology with Diabetes CareH. ThabitThe use of insulin pump therapy has been increasing over the past number of years in many countries. The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) have proven that better glycaemic control with fewer hypoglycemic events is achievable with insulin pump therapy. The delivery of subcutaneous insulin through an insulin pump mimics physiological insulin delivery better than Multiple Daily Injection of … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 22 May 2012 · 7,200 accessesView PDFCite
