Although insulin pumps have long been recommended for people with Type 1 diabetes, their use in people with Type 2 diabetes remains uncommon, and evidence for their benefit over injections remains controversial. Ms. Pereira reviews the evidence for the use of pumps in people with Type 2 diabetes and discusses the barriers to their use, which include the pumps’ high cost and patients’ need for education and support.
