Summary
There has been an big increase in the use of diabetes technology in the NHS recently, especially in type 1 diabetes. Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are now standard care for people with type 1 diabetes, and work has begun to increase access to hybrid closed loop (HCL) systems, which are sometimes referred to as an 'artificial pancreas'. Along with this expansion, it is important to raise awareness of these devices when people with diabetes are admitted to hospital, whether this is directly for their diabetes or not. This information poster, developed by Mayank Patel and the diabetes team at University Hospital Southampton, aims to raise awareness of diabetes tech devices. It also addresses the issue of safe insulin delivery, especially related to pumps.
