Artificial pancreas News
Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin.
Artificial pancreas automates the blood sugar control for people with Type-1 diabetes.
The wearable artificial pancreas can track the patient`s blood sugar level and adjust the amount of insulin given to keep the blood sugar in a target range.
The device, which monitors blood glucose in patients with type 1 diabetes and then automatically adjusts levels of insulin entering the body, is likely to be available by 2018, concluded a team of researchers.
Artificial pancreas may soon become a reality, thanks to the advances in continuous glucose monitoring technology.
A team of the US researchers has developed a functional artificial pancreas that has performed well in humans in clinical settings.
