Automated Insulin Delivery Systems

Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems are advanced devices designed to help people with diabetes manage their blood sugar levels more effectively. They combine a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) that tracks blood sugar in real-time with an insulin pump that automatically adjusts insulin delivery based on the glucose data. Using algorithms, the system modulates insulin doses to keep blood sugar within target ranges, reducing the need for manual adjustments. These systems aim to improve control, lessen the burden of daily management, and minimize the risk of complications associated with diabetes.
