Insulin pump

An insulin pump is a small, computerized device used by people with diabetes to deliver insulin continuously throughout the day. It mimics the way a healthy pancreas releases insulin, helping to manage blood sugar levels more effectively. The pump is worn on the body and is connected to a catheter that delivers insulin under the skin. Users can adjust the insulin flow based on their meals, activities, and blood sugar readings, allowing for greater flexibility and control compared to traditional injections. This technology aims to improve overall diabetes management and enhance quality of life.
