The document discusses the benefits of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems and insulin pump therapy for managing diabetes. CGM provides valuable trend information that can help optimize insulin dosing. Intensive therapy typically involves multiple daily injections of long-acting and rapid-acting insulin. However, absorption of long-acting insulin can vary significantly, leading to day-to-day blood glucose fluctuations. Insulin pump technology allows for programmable insulin delivery to better match a person's changing needs.
