Dr. Marc Breton and Dr. Boris Kovatchev both knew they wanted to pursue a career in STEM research from an early age. Dr. Kovatchev was inspired to apply his statistical and mathematical prowess to diabetes after his father was diagnosed with the condition. It took over 40 factors but he was able to describe the body's insulin system mathematically. Dr Breton came to the world of biotechnological engineering from the world of rocketry. In this episode, they talk about their remarkable invention, a device that regulates insulin for diabetics much like a human pancreas. Plus, they bring special guest, UVA third-year student, Benjamin Motta, who joined the clinical trial for their artificial pancreas at age 12.

Arecor Therapeutics PLC chief executive Sarah Howell speaks to Proactive following the publication of new study data for its lead product AT247, an ultra-rapid-acting form of insulin. Howell suggests that the study indicates that Arecor may have created an insulin that can be absorbed more quickly into the body than any existing rival product. A sufficiently quickly-to-absorb form of insulin has until now been the sole remaining missing component of a useable artificial pancreas system. #proactiveinvestors #arecortherapeutics #diabetes

Australia has many stories from people who say they have long COVID but who are unable to access help | Updated versions of coronavirus vaccines targeting the Omicron variant have been announced, yet the virus still mutates | People with Type 1 diabetes need to monitor their blood glucose but automatic systems are being trialled to assist them | A study on the behaviour of teens undertaken during the pandemic identified some of the particular health risks for this group.
People with Type 1 diabetes need to monitor what's going on with their bodies because they can't make insulin—and it's vital in maintaining blood glucose. An imbalance can be dangerous and damage blood vessels, nerves, and kidneys.

After building her own DIY “artificial pancreas,” Dana Lewis helped found the open source artificial pancreas movement (known as “OpenAPS”), making safe and effective artificial pancreas technology available (sooner) for people with diabetes around the world. She authored the book, "Automated Insulin Delivery: How artificial pancreas “closed loop” systems can aid you in living with diabetes", to help more people understand automated insulin delivery systems, in addition to a series of children's books such as "Understanding Automated Insulin Delivery: A basic book for kids, family, and friends of people living with diabetes", which is also available as a free animated video. She is currently researching numerous diabetes-related data science and open source artificial pancreas system projects. Bon talks with Dana about why she designed an “artificial pancreas”, patients as the experts, and how we can reduce stigma among people living with chronic diseases.
Dr Sufyan Hussain is a Consultant Diabetes and Endocrine Physician at Guy's and St Thomas Hospital in London, and Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer at King's College London, as well as a father of three and self-confessed 'granola addict'. Passionate about improving care for diabetes, he has also lived with type 1 diabetes for almost 30 years - offering an incredibly unique perspective on what it means to live with type 1 diabetes from both inside and outside the NHS. Sufyan was 10 years old and living in Karachi in Pakistan when he was diagnosed. In this episode we talk about the honeymoon phase in those early years, his esteemed 20 year career in medicine, and why he chose to work in a field he was so personally tied to. Documenting his own challenges with type 1 diabetes, from new hospitals and night shifts to hypos at the operating table, Sufyan also talks about how these experiences have impacted the support he offers to those in his care. We also discuss disparities in the healthcare system, how the pandemic has impacted the NHS, and his own interest in DIY looping. This is a fascinating episode and I'm very happy Sufyan could share some of his renowned expertise with us, as well as his own personal story. Follow Sufyan on Twitter.

Photo compliments of Pixabay Today, we’re talking about an interesting development in pediatric medicine that will likely revolutionize the management of childhood onset diabetes, a disease also known as type I diabetes. The advance is known as the “artificial pancreas”. It sounds like science fiction, but as you are about to see, it’s not and it’s almost here. Musical Intro Detour Down Science Lane In order to understand this new “artificial pancreas” technology, we need to take a detour down science drive, and make sure your knowledge of glucose metabolism is up to speed. Glucose is what is known as a simple sugar because it is very easy for your child’s cells to burn for quick energy or to store as fat. Your child’s body has to keep their blood sugar in the “Goldie Locks” range in order to be in good health, with a blood glucose not too high and not too low. A high blood glucose will produce diabetes symptoms like excessive thirst, excessive urination, fatigue, and possibly even coma and death. Low blood glucose can be equally dangerous since your child’s brain almost exclusively uses glucose for energy. Without enough glucose in their blood, your child will first get sweaty and weak and, if low enough, then slump into a coma. As you can see, whether high or low glucose, it’s all bad. Insulin, a hormone made in your child’s pancreas, is the hormone most responsible for regulating the glucose system. In a non-diabetic child, insulin unlocks your child’s cells to get glucose into cells and therefore out of their bloodstream, thus lowering their blood glucose. When glucose is scarce, like during fasting at night, insulin levels are usually low. When glucose is plentiful like after a big meal, your child’s pancreas is busy making insulin to push that excess glucose into fat cells. So, you can see that your child’s pancreas, the place where insulin production is controlled, acts as the master regulator of your child’s very important blood glucose level. And remember, a pancreas does this all automatically. Now let’s consider what is happening in a child with childhood onset or type 1 diabetes. Unfortunately, in this condition, the pancreas cannot make adequate insulin in response to a meal since the cells that produce that insulin were destroyed by an autoimmune process when the child first became diabetic. A type 1 diabetic child has to control their own blood sugar by a combination of carefully measured food intake balanced with exercise and insulin injections. Balancing all this is very difficult as you might imagine. This is a continuous job, 24/7, year in and year out, for the rest of the diabetic child's life. No wonder so many teenage diabetics rebel and just refuse to manage their disease, often with horrible consequences as a result. History of the Management of Type 1 Diabetes To understand just how big a leap the artificial pancreas is in the management of diabetes, it helps to know how it has been managed in the past. The treatment goal when helping a child with type 1 diabetes has always been the same, keep the child’s blood glucose in the narrow range that the child’s pancreas did before they got sick. In the early days of diabetes management, doctors did this by having children taste their urine to see if was sweet or salty. You see, normal urine is salty and diabetic urine has a sweet taste because some of the excess glucose in their blood has spilled over into their urine. When the child’s urine turned sweet, that meant they needed an insulin injection to lower their blood glucose. Next, came what was known as the sliding scale management method, measure the amount of sugar in the urine with as chemical reaction rather than with taste buds. Insulin administration was thus adjusted by the amount of glucose in the child’s urine. This offered a little more refinement than tasting urine but not much. In the past few decades,
The introduction of artificial pancreas has proved to be a boon for diabetic patients this medical device has the potential to improve the conditions of people infected with type one diabetes hence people must be aware of the working of artificial pancreas in order to utilize it for maximum health benefits.Source-ElectronicsForYou Magazine --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/nirmit-verma/support

When Dana Lewis was 14 years old, she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, and that's when her interest in the pancreas and how it functions in the body began. While there's technology like insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors (CGM) that help people manage type 1 diabetes, Lewis quickly learned the drawbacks associated with the fact that these devices don't communicate with each other and are not automated; those dealing with type 1 diabetes still have to do a lot of work to manage their condition. This compelled Lewis to leverage open source code so that she could access her glucose data in real time from her devices, build a set of predictive alarms that would alert her to impending events related to her glucose levels, and create an algorithm which would allow for her insulin pump and CGM to interoperate in a closed loop system and communicate with a phone or computer in order to tell her when she needed more or less insulin. Enjoying the relief from having access to this technology, Lewis wanted to share what she'd created with everyone who could benefit from it. She joins the podcast today to discuss why this technological capability has not already been made available in the health care sector, the challenges inherent in the development and widespread implementation of this type of technology, the details behind how the closed-loop system works, the results of studies looking at the effectiveness of the system she's built, misconceptions about how insulin pumps work, how the technology has drastically improved her sleep, level of energy, and clinical outcomes, and much more. Tune in for the full conversation and visit https://openaps.org/ to learn more.

More than a million Americans suffer from Type 1 diabetes. The disease occurs when the pancreas mysteriously stops producing insulin, the hormone that converts food into energy. Modern medicine has been able to recreate insulin, but not the finely calibrated delivery mechanism of the pancreas. Now a group of like-minded do-it-yourselfers have gotten together on the internet and—working outside the purview of organized medicine—have figured out how to link a pump, glucose monitor and smartphone to simulate a functioning pancreas. The results have been spectacularly successful.

We talked with Tim Mecklem about building an artificial Pancreas with Elixir and Nerves to help those with Type 1 Diabetes who want to “loop” — a process which involves monitoring glucose levels, predicting where a person’s glucose levels are heading, then delivering insulin based on that prediction. Tim is a Developer at Gaslight in Cincinnati where he builds software solutions with Ruby and Elixir, and he’s a member of the Nerves Core team.

Dana Lewis has Type 1 diabetes, which means her pancreas doesn't make the insulin she needs to survive. So she built a new one. Dana is the founder of the Open Source Artificial Pancreas System, a computer system that hundreds of diabetes patients now use to automatically manage their condition. We tell Dana's story on this episode of the GeekWire Health Tech Podcast. Read more about our health and technology coverage at GeekWire.com.

Tom Brobson is JDRF's National Director of Research Investment Opportunities. He was diagnosed with type 1 as an adult and has been involved personally in many artificial pancreas trials, the first of which had him hooked up to a computer in the hospital and not allowed to get up or go anywhere without a healthcare professional by his side. Of course, since then, the trials have included trials with equipment as small as a pump, CGM & smart phone. Stacey recorded Tom as he gave a presentation at a local JDRF walk kickoff event. He talks about stem cell research, the artificial pancreas project and other advances in diabetes technology. He also talks about approvals and access. In this episode, Stacey also talks about coughing for pain relief during shots and insertions. Really! We also share the adventures of people with T1D in the Arctic and in Alaska as this episode is released.
The Type Zero Technologies artificial pancreas project is one of the many racing to market. Their technology comes from years of research, still ongoing, at the University of Virginia. This summer, they announced a new partnership with Tandem. Molly McElwee Malloy, who has type 1 herself, is the head of patient engagement for Type Zero. She talks about the studies, the progress and the emotional and mental side of artificial pancreas projects. Plus, necessity is the mother of invention and diabetes moms are nothing if not resourceful. In our Community Connection, the inventor of Diabetic Dabs talks about how she come up with this idea. Liz Sacco shares the story of how her son's diagnosis led her to find a why to clean up after finger sticks.
This week, a conversation with some of the top executives at Animas, checking in on their newest products in development, the latest research and their company plans. Stacey talks to John Wilson, the Worldwide Vice President, Insulin Delivery for Johnson & Johnson and Krishna Venugopalan, the Worldwide Director of Research & Development, Insulin Delivery. They talk about Animas’s version of a hybrid closed loop, further Dexcom integration, remote capabilities and much more. Stacey also gives her take on all the talk around the "Artificial Pancreas" vs "Hybrid Closed Loop" language that came with the announcement that Medtronic received approval for a first of its kind device. And we mention the Diabetes Dance Dare, a new social media challenge from the American Diabetes Association.
Bigfoot Biomedical came on the scene in 2014 determined to change the way companies look at diabetes technology. They've moved forward quickly and are now starting their first clinical trial for their "Smartloop" automated insulin delivery system. Stacey talks to Bigfoot Chief Engineer Lane Desborough about what this system is, what the trial is testing, and how you can find out if you're eligible to enroll. Desborough is also the co-creator of Nightscout, the free, open source CGM remote monitoring system and is credited with coining the term "We are not waiting." Like all four founders of Bigfoot, Desborough has a child with type 1 diabetes.
Today we have a study that shows us that tight blood glucose control in type 2 diabetes for a relatively concentrated amount of time can have positive effects that last for years when it comes to the eyes. Then, we’ll turn to the world of type 1 diabetes and some really interesting “real world” use by kids of a wearable artificial pancreas.
In this episode we take on the idea of data liberation. In particular we focus on medical data for this episode. Should the data stored in devices such as glucose monitors be available for you to use and not just view?

Scott Leibrand loves Dana Lewis (episode 63) and together they built Dana her very own artificial pancreas. This episode isn't a true part 2, it is more a different perspective on the story of OpenAPS then the one you heard in ep 63. In the end, I got the feeling that if this guy loves you... there is nothing that he wouldn't do. In episode 63 of the JBP I talk with Dana and get her perspective on their journey.

Dana Lewis has type 1 diabetes and one day she decided to try to make the alarms louder on her Dexcom CGM. That simple endeavor led Dana and her husband Scott to build their very own artificial pancreas... then they shared the code that they wrote online. Dana says that anyone who wants to, can do the very same thing. This is a story about ingenuity, community and the desire to live a better life. In episode 64 of the JBP I talk with Scott and get his perspective on their journey.

For people with type I diabetes, the day-to-day management of the disease can be a full-time job involving the monitoring blood glucose levels and injection of insulin. The medical device giant Medtronic has been working toward the development of what it's called an artificial pancreas, a steady improvement of pump and sensor technology to free type I diabetes patients and allow them to think less about the management of their disease. We spoke to Fran Kaufman, chief medical officer of Medtronic Diabetes, about the progress the company has made, its newest technology that is moving towards the market, and how close it is to realizing its vision of an artificial pancreas.
Former Denver Post Editor Greg Moore led The Denver Post at a tough time of circulation declines and employee layoffs -- but his tenure also included four Pulitzer Prizes. Then, two Fort Collins filmmakers followed Syrian refugees for the documentary "ALWADI: A Journey of Hope." And, diabetic kids went skiing to test out a new "artificial pancreas" that delivers insulin.
Scott sits with fellow Type 1 Diabetic Dana M. Lewis about the Open Artificial Pancreas System that she and her husband Scott Leibrand created. As other commercial entities race to "close the loop" for diabetics, how did two regular folks control diabetes with off-the-shelf parts? Dana demystifies the technology behind this software-managed diabetes solution.
Type 1 Diabetes is being diagnosed in children younger and younger these days. Hear about the very latest development in the war against diabetes – an ‘airbag’ that shuts insulin delivery off at night if levels get to high while a child is sleeping – and thereby preventing the patient from going into hypo glycemic shock, one of parents biggest fears
An hour long conversation with Insulet's Chief Commercial Officer Shacey Petrovic. Shacey answers questions from the diabetes community and from me in this candid chat. We talk about Medicare, Freestyle test strips, Artificial Pancreas, Omnipod/Dexcom partnership, new PDM status, the Forbes piece that paints Omnipod as being in jeopardy of being "out of the insulin pump market" in one year and much more.

You should always consult a physician before making changes to your health plan. ***** Freestyle Test Strip Info that Shacey spoke of... OmniPod® patients now have access to a dedicated toll-free Helpline if they should experience any co-pay or coverage issues with their FreeStyle® Test Strips (877-654-9975). Upon dialing this number, the patient will reach a knowledgeable customer support team member to help them navigate through their test strip coverage. As of November 2nd, patients who call the support number will also be offered the Prior Authorization Assistance Program (PAAP). The goal of the PAAP is to ensure easy access to FreeStyle test strips for new (and existing) OmniPod patients. With patient consent and HIPAA authorization, the following steps will be taken to execute on the PAAP: 1. Abbott will conduct a full Benefit Investigation. 2. From there, Abbott will both facilitate/assist in reaching out to the patient's payers and HCP to obtain the Prior Authorization (Appeal or Tier Exception) approval. 3. If approved, Abbott will be sending the PA approval and Rx referral to the patient's pharmacy of choice. . If denied, Abbott will be driving patients to participating pharmacies (major retail chains). Eligible patients may be able to benefit/receive automatic and affordable co-pay savings at participating pharmacies.
