Researchers at the University of Virginia Health System have published a review on the future of automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, such as the artificial pancreas. While AID systems have improved blood sugar management for millions of people with type 1 diabetes, limitations remain, including the need for user input for meals and exercise. The researchers aim to fully automate AID systems, making them easier to use and more accessible to a wider range of patients, including older adults and pregnant women. To achieve this, researchers are testing systems that use artificial intelligence to detect meals and deliver insulin doses without user interaction. The goal is to simplify the use of AID systems, improving access for the millions of people with diabetes who do not yet have access to this technology.
