To Pump or Not to Pump? A Discussion on Automated Pancreas Systems in Pregnancy

January 22, 2024

Endocrinology & Diabetes

Pregnancy in individuals with type 1 diabetes carries significant risks for both mother and baby, making tight glycemic control and appropriate technology use critical to improving outcomes. Supporting clinicians in navigating these complex decisions is essential for safe, evidence-based care. This case-based webinar explored the risks, benefits, and practical considerations of using automated pancreas systems (insulin pumps) in type 1 diabetes during pregnancy. Participants gained clinical insights and real-world "pearls" to support decision-making in this high-risk population. The session was delivered by Robin Lucciantonio and Dr. Rose Yeung.
