Insulin pump therapy, or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII), has evolved from a research procedure in the 1970s to a routine form of treatment for selected people with type 1 diabetes. This book is the first to combine a detailed discussion of the evidence-base for all aspects ofCSII in adults and children with a practical guide to treating people with diabetes using insulin pump therapy. It also includes a discussion on the clinical applications of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), a technology which is increasingly being used with CSII, and best injection therapy foroptimizing diabetes control. The book concludes with a look into the future with a discussion on likely developments in pump therapy and CGM in the coming years, including research into an artificial pancreas and completely non-invasive glucose sensing. The book is aimed specifically at doctors, nurses, dietitians and other healthcare professionals involved in setting up and running an Insulin Pump Service. Several national guidelines for insulin pump therapy have recently been issued, including from the UK National Institute for Health andClinical Excellence (NICE). These extend the clinical indications to new groups of patients and underline the urgent need for physicians and other healthcare professionals to update themselves about CSII and to ensure improved access to insulin pump services for all eligible patient groups. Thisbook meets that need.The book is edited by the originator of CSII and includes chapters by a well-established team responsible for one of the largest Insulin Pump Clinics in the UK, and with additional contributions from internationally acknowledged experts in insulin pump therapy, CGM and diabetes technology.
