  • Why do medical implants like insulin pumps and prosthetic knees need replacement? Explore how the immune system fights implants and how new devices are trying to help.
    --
    Insulin pumps improve the lives of millions of people with diabetes around the world by monitoring blood sugar, delivering insulin, and preventing the need for constant finger-pricking. But there’s a catch: they’re temporary. And it’s not only insulin pumps that have this problem, but all bodily implants. Why is that? Kaitlyn Sadtler details how our immune system reacts to foreign bodies.
    Lesson by Kaitlyn Sadtler, directed by Andrew Foerster.

    The “needle” attached the to the pump is usually called a cannula and it doesn’t sense glucose levels. Unless you have a separate device for monitoring glucose levels you still have to do finger pricks even if you’re on a pump.

      This is the comment I was looking for :D Sure some people have a closed loop set up but the insulin pump is just for pumping insulin, as the name suggests. You need extra bits if you want to monitor glucose levels - it talks to the pump but it's not the pump itself.

    As a type 1 diabetic on a pump I love the depictions of what’s happening in my body’s everyday. However must note that’s not really how insertion set (pump canulas) are inserted. Also my immune system is currently suppressed and so one time I accidentally forgot to change my set for 10 days and it was still working. Usually you can see scar tissue in the tube but there was zero cell build up in the tubing . Maybe that’s tmi but I thought it was wild

    0:24 ummmm being a diabetic myself that's far from our reality, I'm well aware those closed looped systems exists but they are still unaffordable for the common diabetic (and it's usually two different separate devices the needle and the glucose sensor). Felt like this wasn't very accurate.

    Just to add my two penny here. It’s a cannula, not a needle. And bloodless glucose sensors exist but combining them with an insulin pump is a brand new technology that is only now being trialled across a few patients. It’s not like we all have access to this 2-in-1 decide.

    Pump and cgm (continuous glucose monitor) require different insertions in different parts of the body. And also it’s not a needle that’s stays in your body, it’s a plastic tube called a cannula. Probably trying to simplify things but just thought I’d point it out
