“…Anatomical regions recommended for insulin delivery either by injection or insulin pump include the arm, abdomen, thigh, and buttocks. [10][11][12] Predominantly, the abdomen is used as the insertion site for the IIS since insertion here is convenient and comfortable. Nevertheless, no studies on the impact of using different anatomical regions for insulin pump therapy were retrieved by the literature search performed on this subject.…”

Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion from an insulin pump depends on reliable transfer of the pumped insulin to the subcutaneous insulin depot by means of an insulin infusion set (IIS). Despite their widespread use, the published knowledge about IISs and related issues regarding the impact of placement and wear time on insulin absorption/insulin action is relatively small. We also have to acknowledge that our knowledge is limited with regard to how often patients encounter issues with IISs. Reading pump wearer blogs, for instance, suggests that these are a frequent source of trouble. There are no prospective clinical studies available on current IIS and insulin formulations that provide representative data on the type and frequency of issues with infusion sets. The introduction of new IISs and patch pumps may foster a reassessment of available products and of patient problems related to their use. The aim of this review is to summarize the current knowledge and recommendations about IISs and to highlight potential directions of IIS development in order to make insulin absorption safer and more efficient.

“…6 They considered significant factors, including injection site rotation habits, the incidence of lipohypertrophy, needle length, the timing of injections and the use of a lifted skin fold. Subsequently, Frid et al 7 examined the injecting habits of 4 300 people with diabetes using insulin, 999 of whom were from the UK. Both studies revealed worrying practices in relation to the injection technique, with little improvement in the technique being developed over the years.…”
