Insulin Pump Therapy: An Alternative To Conventional Insulin Injections

Course overview

Many people with diabetes have difficulty maintaining a normal blood glucose level. The Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (EDIC) study showed that intensive therapy can reduce the long-term risk of cardiovascular disease associated with diabetes. The choice of intensive insulin therapy treatment depends on the wishes of the patient and the comfort and competence of the healthcare team with a given technique. This updated CE module provides information to help clinicians understand insulin pumps and how they work.
