The use of modern technology in type 1 diabe tes (T1DM) management is one of the most discussed topics nowadays. In our country, the access to the use of various continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) devices and blood glucose monitoring systems has increased. At present, the available devices in clude: CSII pumps, sensors augmented pumps (SAP), sensors augmented pumps with predictive low glu cose suspend monitoring systems (PLGM) which also offer alarms/prediction for hyperglycemia. There are several types of continuous glucose monitoring sys tems (CGMS):
A. intermittently viewed (iCGMS) which shows continuous glucose measurements retrospec tively at the time of checking [1];
B. real-time (rtCGMS) which uniformly tracks the glucose concentrations in the body’s interstitial fl uid, providing near real-time glucose data [1]. In this category, is also included the subcutaneous implanta
ble sensor which requires a minor surgical. Taking into consideration the wide variety of these systems, the essential aspect is to choose the most suitable system according to the safety profi le, accuracy and patient preference.
