[External insulin pump treatment].
External insulin pumps are part of the treatment arsenal of intensified insulin therapy. They represent a major advance in the treatment of diabetes. A growing number of diabetes patients have been using them since they were first covered by French health insurance in 2000. Moreover, technological progress, both in terms of insulin infusion equipment and glucose sensors, has been decisive over the last 10 years.
