Can Bi-Hormonal Systems Finally Eliminate Severe Hypoglycemia?

dual-hormone-artificial-pancreas-severe-hypoglycemia

Many people with type 1 diabetes live with the constant fear of blood glucose dropping too low. Even today’s most advanced automated insulin delivery systems cannot actively raise glucose once levels begin to fall. Instead, they can only reduce or suspend insulin delivery. A dual-hormone artificial pancreas system changes that …

For more than a century, insulin has saved millions of lives. Yet despite remarkable advances in diabetes technology, one major challenge remains: preventing hypoglycemia while maintaining excellent glucose control. That is why researchers are developing glucose-responsive insulin, often called “smart” insulin. Instead of delivering a fixed amount of insulin regardless …
