DANA Diabecare R insulin pump

This may be the smallest, lightest insulin pump system at 63g (including battery) but it has the standard 300-unit insulin capacity as well as waterproof specification. There’s the insulin pump itself, as well as a separate remote control with integrated blood glucose meter. Test results are sent to the micro infusion pump wirelessly. The remote also helps you calculate carbs so you can figure out your boluses and adjust or temporarily reset your basal rates, which are delivered from the pump to the body via tubing and infusion sets. You can check and review your histories on the screen. The DANA Diabecare insulin pump series now provides diabetes care for more than 50,000 users in 47 countries, many of them in Asia. The manufacturer, SOOIL Development Company of Korea, has been refining its insulin pump technology for more than 30 years and have the longest history of insulin pump manufacture.
