Abstract:
A glucose-controlled insulin infusion system (Biostator) was used to determine patient insulin requirement for clinical evaluation of a portable pump system (technical development by Siemens AG). Results from 6 insulin-dependent diabetics with respect to quality of control, carbohydrate/insulin ratio, and insulin requirement are shown. Preprogrammed insulin infusion with the portable system was carried out for up to 117 days.
