A new study suggests that insulin pumps may be more effective than daily insulin injections for controlling blood sugar levels. [s]Medical News Today[/s] reports that this is the largest study to explore the effectiveness of insulin pumps for type 2 diabetes – the type that accounts for 90-95% of all diabetes cases. Professor Yves Reznik of the [b]University of Caen Côte de Nacre Regional Hospital Centre[/b] in [b]France[/b] says: ‘Our findings open up a valuable new treatment option for those individuals failing on current injection regimens and may also provide improved convenience, reducing the burden of dose tracking and scheduling, and decreasing insulin injection omissions.’
