TI  - Insulin pump therapy in children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes: 
      improvements in glycemic control and patients' satisfaction -- Hospital UKM 
      experience.
PG  - 308-12
AB  - Hospital UKM (Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia) introduced the use of insulin pump 
      therapy in children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes in Malaysia in April 
      2004. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of pump therapy and its 
      impact on metabolic control among patients from our institution. Insulin pump 
      therapy resulted in sustainable improvement in glycemic control throughout the 
      six years of treatment with reduction in HbA1c in the first two years of pump use 
      was statistically significant. The BMI SDS showed an increase trend but the 
      changes before and after pump use was insignificant. There is also high level of 
      treatment satisfaction reported among our insulin pump patients.
