An insulin pump is a medical device used primarily to treat type 1 diabetes mellitus. The insulin pump is used as an alternative to multiple daily insulin injections by a syringe or insulin pen. An insulin pump imitates the way a pancreas works by allowing the patient to set a basal rate, or background insulin, that is continuously delivered throughout the day. When the patient eats they can then give a bolus dosage of insulin, or a burst of insulin, on demand, to compensate for the food.
