Description
This is the first webinar in our 4-part series, "Mastering Diabetes Devices: Integrating CGM, Insulin Pumps and Automated Insulin Delivery Into Your Clinical Practice".
This webinar will educate and equip clinicians to work effectively with diabetes devices in their clinical practices. This first session will focus on insulin pumps and how to determine insulin pump settings when transitioning a person with type 1 diabetes (T1D) from multiple daily injections (MDI) to an insulin pump. We will review the basics of insulin pump therapy and basal and bolus pump settings, discuss the different pump models that are currently available in the United States, and review use of the PANTHER Program’s NEW Insulin Pump Settings Tool to determine insulin pump settings.
This webinar is limited to the first 1,000 registrants.
