Over the past decade, technology has considerably changed insulin therapy in children and adolescents. A major improvement in insulin delivery has been achieved with the introduction of insulin pumps (CSII) and continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGM). The possibility to use advanced functions within these technological tools (different bolus types, bolus calculator, temporary basal rates) allows the patient to potentially achieve improved glucose control as well as lifestyle flexibility and quality of life.
