Abstract

Continuous glucose monitoring enables innovative insulin pumps to stop infusion of insulin at selected blood glucose thresholds. We present the first and successful Danish clinical case using this device, a Medtronics Veo insulin pump, in a patient with numerous cases of severe hypoglycaemia during earlier pregnancies. During this treatment insulin infusion was frequently stopped and severe hypoglycaemia prevented in the remaining part of pregnancy.
