Abstract
This study examined the long-term efficacy of insulin pump therapy for type 1 diabetes patients when performed using carbohydrate counting with bolus calculators for one year. Twenty-two type 1 diabetes patients who had just started continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion were examined and divided into 2 groups: one that was educated about carbohydrate counting using bolus calculators (n=14) and another that did not use bolus calculators (n=8). After one year, the hemoglobin A1c levels of the patient group that used bolus calculators decreased persistently and significantly (P=0.0297), while those of the other group did not. The body weight, total daily dose of insulin, and bolus percentage of both groups did not change. Carbohydrate counting using bolus calculators is necessary to achieve optimal and persistent glycemic control in patients undergoing continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion
