Insulin pumps deliver doses in three ways:

• Basal – a steady, continuous measured dose

• Bolus – a surge dose controlled or preprogrammed by you, often administered during mealtime.

• Supplemental doses

You need basal insulin dose continuously for 24 hours to maintain your blood glucose level between meals. During mealtime, you can take a bolus to compensate for the carbohydrate in your meals or if you have overeaten. You can schedule a larger bolus of insulin for these scenarios.

Advantages of Using Diabetic Insulin Pumps

• It eliminates multiple insulin injection through syringe or pen

• It delivers more accurate doses than injections

• Insulin pumps are known to improve A1C (test that measures the person’s average blood glucose in the past 2-3 months).

• It helps avoid large swings in your blood glucose levels

• Bolus delivery is easier using insulin pumps

• It lessens severe low blood glucose level episode

• It offers flexibility on your eating habits

Disadvantages of Using Insulin Pumps

• It can be more expensive than other glucose injection methods

• It can be inconvenient wearing the pump all the time

• You need to spend a full day in an outpatient center or hospital to be trained how to use it

• It may cause weight gain and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA).

• You need additional insulin pump supplies to use it

• Malfunctioning of the pump is possible

If you think the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, then an insulin pump is the right method for you. Recent developments regarding design features and smarter configurations are being added to insulin pumps over the years; these could make you rethink if insulin pumps would work for you.

Custom alarms - monitor activities on specific times of the day. If a certain activity prerecorded did not take place, the alarm would signal the user. It is helpful for missed lunch bolus and blood glucose test.

Bluetooth remote – some brands offer a two-way BT wireless connection between insulin pump and glucose meter.

Rechargeable batteries – traditional insulin pumps use disposable batteries. There are available pumps with internal rechargeable batteries that can be charged via USB cable.

Connectivity to personal computers – with the use of a diabetes management software, you can upload data from pump for better record keeping.

Tubeless pod – it eliminates the tube part of the pump by attaching the infusion set directly to the skin.

Managing your diabetes effectively also depends on reliable insulin pump supplies. You also need to consider your activities in choosing these supplies. For example, if you wear your pump far from the infusion set, you need a tubing or catheter with longer length. The set is mainly implanted on the abdomen, but it can also be worn on different parts of your body; choose infusion sets based on your lifestyle and body type.
