Everyday aids for diabetics
Insulin therapy is essential for children with diabetes in order to keep blood sugar levels stable and prevent secondary diseases.
There are various aids for daily use:
- Insulin pens - handy devices, similar to a pen, which make it easier to inject insulin precisely. Well-known manufacturers for children are JuniorStar and NovoPen Echo.
- Insulin pumps - deliver insulin continuously and enable flexible, precisely dosed therapy. Modern systems such as hybrid closed-loop systems automatically adjust the insulin supply to the current blood glucose level.
