Insulin pump to diabetic patients get rid of injection worries

Anshan Daily News (Intern Li Bo reporter Baxi) 50-year-old Ms. Zhao began injecting insulin two years ago, the daily injection on time, dining is also very careful, but its blood glucose is still very large changes in the blood glucose concentration suddenly high Suddenly low, the doctor recently used insulin pump for her, starting from the day the insulin pump started, Ms. Zhao no longer need injection, and her blood glucose levels are also very stable, the condition has been effectively controlled. According to reports, diabetes has become a common disease in modern civilized society, and a serious threat to human health. At present, there are about 40 million people with diabetes in our country. About 5% of them need insulin injections to maintain their lives. As the use of insulin therapy can reduce the eye, kidney, nervous system and other complications, it is the most scientific control of blood sugar, the most effective and cutting-edge means. Under normal circumstances, the use of insulin therapy is to inject short-acting insulin before meals to control postprandial blood glucose, bedtime injection, long-acting insulin to control nighttime blood glucose and fasting blood glucose in the morning. However, due to the patient's individual differences, the absorption of insulin is also different, so often there will be fluctuations in blood glucose values. However, the use of insulin pump is different, according to Angang Changdian Hospital Hospital, director of Endocrinology Zhang Suhong introduction, the use of insulin pump therapy, that is, through the insulin pump computer system to set the basic and pre-meal dose to simulate normal human insulin secretion mode, so that blood glucose was the most Satisfactory control, the current treatment is very consistent with the physiological state of human treatment. Insulin pump known as "artificial islet" size as a pager, hanging in the waist or in the pocket, through a small thin tube of insulin infusion to patients under the skin, fully simulate the physiological secretion of insulin, effective Control blood sugar, and the use of methods is also very safe and convenient, and eliminates the need for patients to inject insulin several times a day cumbersome and painful, patients can flexibly master the meal time, set the basal rate in stages to solve the night hypoglycemia and elevated blood glucose The problem. Zhang Suhong introduction, all patients with insulin therapy can be used insulin pump therapy, in particular, unstable blood glucose control of type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, type 1 diabetes, perioperative glycemic control. At present, the hospital has used insulin pump for more than one hundred patients with diabetes, the effect is very good. In addition, Angang Changdian Hospital for patients with insulin pump at the same time with the use of the hospital's dynamic glucose meter for blood glucose monitoring, the so-called dynamic glucose monitor as the camera in general, faithfully record the patient's blood glucose changes every hour, With the accurate blood glucose level monitored by the dynamic blood glucose monitor, the insulin pump dose setting can be adjusted more accurately and timely, providing a more comprehensive blood glucose treatment plan for diabetics.
