Ambulatory insulin infusion pump, electronic

An electronic ambulatory insulin infusion pump is a portable, battery-operated device used to manage diabetes mellitus by delivering insulin directly into the body. These systems provide continuous or intermittent subcutaneous insulin through a needle or catheter, allowing for both steady basal rates and manual bolus doses.

These devices are designed to be worn on the body, either attached to clothing or adhered directly to the skin. They consist of an integrated pumping mechanism, a reservoir for insulin, and a controller to manage the precise delivery of medication.
