    A glucose-controlled insulin infusion system helped evaluate a portable insulin pump for diabetics. This system determined insulin needs, showing good control and carbohydrate/insulin ratios over extended use.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Endocrinology
    • Diabetes Management

    Background:

    • Insulin-dependent diabetes requires precise glucose control.
    • Portable insulin pumps offer potential for improved diabetes management.
    • Evaluating new insulin delivery systems is crucial for patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To clinically evaluate a portable insulin pump system.
    • To determine patient insulin requirements using a glucose-controlled system.
    • To assess the efficacy of preprogrammed insulin infusion.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a glucose-controlled insulin infusion system (Biostator).
    • Evaluated a portable insulin pump system developed by Siemens AG.
    • Monitored 6 insulin-dependent diabetic patients.

    Main Results:

    • Assessed quality of glycemic control.
    • Determined carbohydrate-to-insulin ratios.
    • Quantified individual insulin requirements.
    • Extended preprogrammed insulin infusion for up to 117 days.

    Conclusions:

    • The portable pump system shows promise for diabetes management.
    • Accurate insulin requirement determination is feasible with glucose-controlled systems.
    • Further evaluation of portable insulin infusion systems is warranted.
