Title: Use of glucose-controlled insulin infusion system for improvement of subcutaneous insulin regimen. Author: Irsigler K, Kritz H, Kaspar L, Brändle J, Franetzki M.

This procedure is particularly useful in achieving tight control in pregnant diabetics.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
