Automated Insulin Delivery: How artificial pancreas closed loop systems can aid you in living with diabetes Lewis Dana M.

Automated insulin delivery goes by many names: hybrid or full closed loop; artificial pancreas system (APS); "looping" and more. You have choices, ranging from the type of pump body and CGM you want to use, to the algorithm and controller, to the interoperability and remote monitoring options, and more. They are not all the same, though.

It's certainly one you can tackle. Like switching from multiple daily injections to an insulin pump, switching from manual diabetes to automated insulin delivery has a learning curve. After all, you're already tackling type 1 diabetes You already have the base knowledge and experience you need to succeed with a closed loop system, if it's right for you.

But you might be wondering how to get ahead of your learning curve before you start or even choose an APS, or you've started and want to dig even deeper into optimizing how an automated insulin delivery
