An insulin pump is a wearable medical device that delivers insulin underneath the skin. Insulin pumps are mostly small, computerized devices that are roughly the size of a juice box or a deck of cards. They serve as an alternative to frequent insulin injections
Untapped Commercial Opportunities Among Both Type I and Type II Diabetic Patients
Diabetes is a silent epidemic that claims millions of lives each year. It is touted as a pandemic of unprecedented magnitude that is spiraling out of control. According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), the total number of people living with diabetes globally is projected to rise to643 million by 2030 and 783 million by 2045.
People with insulin-dependent diabetes need a continuous supply of insulin. There are two types of insulin therapy practiced today - multiple daily injections (MDI) therapy using syringes or insulin pens and pump therapy using insulin pumps. As per estimates approximately 40% of the Type 1 diabetes patients in the United States and even less of the international Type 1 diabetes patients use insulin pump therapy. An even smaller share of the U.S. and international insulin-intensive type 2 diabetes patients use insulin pump therapy, which presents significant opportunities for the stakeholders globally.
- Insulin administration through injections is expected to remain the standard of care across developed markets and emerging markets. However, in developed markets, the penetration of insulin pumps over the next decade is expected to reach ~55-60% for T1 diabetes ensive diabetes patients
