Insulin pump For patients with type 1 diabetes, a prefilled insulin cartridge can also be inserted into a personal insulin pump.

This device is permanently worn by the patient and constantly delivers an infusion of insulin, at a rate defined by the user.

The cartridge is changed every few days.

In the United Kingdom, only people with type 1 diabetes who meet essential criteria are entitled to a trial of insulin pump therapy.
