| | Postgraduate Medicine: Insulin pump therapy in the 21st century |
| | Healthcare professionals who are discussing pump therapy with a prospective pump user need to provide realistic expectations: CSII is not a cure but a tool to aid in the successful management of diabetes. | | | Thus CSII can be used effectively in a large pediatric clinic setting, and the age of the patient should not, itself, be a barrier to initiation of this therapy. | | | No adherence tests (ie, wearing a "saline" pump) or qualifying tasks (ie, signing a contract) must be completed before CSII therapy is begun, although older children and adolescents have to express an interest in pump therapy. |

| | Insulin pump - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | There is a lot more research to do on CBGM technology but the first closed-loop systems may be made available for clinical trials by mid-2006. | | | However, the two main manufacturers of pumps, Medtronic (Paradigm, Minimed), and Roche Diagnostics (Disetronic H-Tron and D-Tron) are testing the concept of a closed-loop system but even if the concept is as promising as it appears there remains the legal problem of what happens if the system is incorrect. | | | In the UK, where public funding is limited, most patients have to self-finance their pumps. |
