Pump insulin therapy: MCSC patient reviews
An insulin pump is a small device, smaller than a smartphone, that allows you to deliver insulin to the body throughout the day in the necessary doses.
Doctors recommend using an insulin pump:patients with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes mellitus who do not achieve normal hemoglobin levels;
- in cases of frequent decrease in glucose levels;
- during pregnancy or pregnancy planning;
- with high variability of blood glucose levels.
The Department of Endocrinology at the Pavlova MCSC branch specializes in the treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus, diseases of the thyroid gland, adrenal glands, pituitary gland, primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism.
The department provides high-tech medical care for the installation of pumps for continuous administration of insulin and provides training on self-control of the pump and daily monitoring of glucose levels in real time. Pump insulin therapy is necessary for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus, as well as type 2 patients on insulin therapy.
Therapy helps:
- greatly simplify the control of hemoglobin levels;
- spend more time in the range of target values and reduce the incidence of an increase or decrease in blood glucose levels.
Thus, thanks to the installation of an insulin pump, the glucose level becomes more predictable: you can manage diabetes without wasting time and effort. And also there is no need to do repeated injections of insulin during the day.
In our video, patients of the endocrinology department of the Pavlov MCSC branch, who have had type 1 diabetes since childhood, talked about how the installation of the pump facilitated the control of the condition and affected their lives.
