Innovations In Diabetes Care Bring Patients More Control by Jean Louis Selam, M.D. (NAPS)--According to the American Diabetes Association, at least a third of Americans will develop the condition at some time in their lives. It can't be cured but it can be managed. While medicine has improved the quality of life of people with diabetes significantly over the years, the need for some way to regulate blood sugar remains unchanged. Researchers are explor- ipg new pathways to innovative treatments. For instance, one research team identified a new link between heart hormones, insulin resistance and obesity, which could signal new treatment options for those with type 2 diabetes. Continued insights into the medical characteristics of the main groups of people with dia- betes have unveiled some new methods that doctors can use to correctly identify forms of dia- betes sooner. Armed with these, doctors can proactively and more effectively treat once-rare varia- tions of this condition. One new treatment is an inhal- able form of insulin that acts quickly, so users have greater flex- ibility in managing blood glucose fluctuations that often occur after eating. This means more spontaneity A new device makes dealing with diabetes easier and more convenient. 2. Less paraphernalia. People with diabetes don't just carry around a vial of insulin; there are syringes, swabs for cleaning injec- tion sites, and more. Many people ration these supplies to make sure the quantities covered by their health care plans will last. This is especially important as the esti- mated medical costs for people with diabetes are twice as high as for people without diabetes. With a supplemental insulin in the dis- creet form of an inhaler, people with diabetes can leave more sup- plies at home and still feel pre- pared for whatever may come their way. 3. Faster peak action time and shorter duration. Social occasions are often reduced to a game of "unit roulette" for many people with diabetes.
