title: Pumping insulin during exercise: what healthcare providers and diabetic patients need to know.
abstract: Exercise can decrease insulin resistance in most people. Insulin pumps deliver precise insulin adjustments that improve fuel availability and provide glycemic control to help diabetic patients overcome obstacles to exercise. Diabetic patients, their physicians, and their healthcare providers should be familiar with the features and nuances of specific pump models and follow some basic guiding principles for exercise to create the most normal metabolic response possible.
