Article Synopsis
- Geriatric patients with brittle type 2 diabetes often face complications like hypoglycemia, and Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems may improve their glycemic control.
- A study involving 34 elderly patients switching from multiple-dose insulin to AID systems showed significant reductions in HbA1c levels and total insulin doses after six months.
- Results indicate that even frail patients, including those undergoing chemotherapy and steroids, can benefit from AID systems, leading to better diabetes management.
