Technological progress in the treatment of type 1 diabetes requires doctors to use modern methods of insulin therapy in all areas of medicine that patients may come into contact with, including surgical interventions. The current guidelines indicate the possibility of using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion in minor surgical procedures, but there are few reported cases of using a hybrid closed-loop system in perioperative insulin therapy. This case presentation focuses on two children with type 1 diabetes who were treated with an advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) system during a minor surgical procedure. In the periprocedural period, the recommended mean glycemia and the time in range were maintained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
