Millions of people worldwide suffer from diabetes, a chronic metabolic
disease that needs to be accurately and consistently managed. The disorder is being
treated by technological developments that improve blood glucose management. An
overview of the main technologies used to manage diabetes is given in this chapter,
including insulin pumps, artificial pancreas systems, and Continuous Glucose
Monitoring (CGM) devices. Multiple insulin injections are no longer necessary thanks
to real-time blood glucose regulation. There is a detailed discussion of emerging tools,
such as in silico sensors, which anticipate glucose dynamics using computational
models. They guarantee the best possible insulin delivery based on information
gathered from the effective application of closed-loop control algorithms. Additionally,
the use of AI and machine learning will further improve the efficacy of individualized
therapy, and simple, accurate, and portable insulin pens are discussed as diabetes care
solutions. Even with the advances in technology, issues like cost, availability, and data
security continue to be significant. Nevertheless, a bright future is anticipated, with
advances significantly improving patient outcomes.
