The device will improve self-management of the disease and prevent damage by impairment of control. The device consists of sensors that will be attached to the body to detect a number of parameters like blood glucose or blood pressure.

With these data, patients may tune in the administration of doses, avoiding physiological complications arising from an excess of insulin. In four years it is expected that the technology is available on the market. Scientists say it is very necessary because diabetes is increasingly present in our society as a result of lifestyle we lead. For Yaiza Martínez.
