Patient Considerations
Active Lifestyle
Tubeless and waterproof pod. No way to adjust long-acting insulin for higher activity on the fly, but the device is tubeless and waterproof.
Avoiding Highs and Lows
Limited customizability. System requires manual dose adjustment and limits the ability to adjust insulin levels throughout the day.
Comfort
Free of tubing. Patches do not have tubing.
Easy Insulin Dosing
Modifiable. The pod is available in seven different pre-programmed daily rates, ranging between ten and 40 units a day.
Easy to Use
Simple with few steps. Patch is replaced every 72-hours with a fixed rate of continuous rapid-acting insulin.
Fewer Fingersticks
Frequent finger-sticks are required.
Privacy
Hideable. Bulkier patch pump, but not as noticeable as injections.
