Klappentext zu „Functional Insulin Treatment “
Functional Insulin Treatment (FIT) is the most effective method of treatment for type 1(insulin-dependent) diabetes available today. Whether with an insulin pump or with multiple daily injections, the diabetic patient trained in FIT is able to dose his insulin on the basis of actual fuction so that he achieves near-normoglycemia and the freedom to eat when, what and how much he wants. The goal of FIT is to adapt the therapy to the lifestyle of the patient. This book creates a common basis for communication among therapists (physicians, nurses, dietitians, diabetes educators) and patients involved in FIT. It clearly defines the principles of the treatment and describes the contents, media and techniques of a practical program for training patients to carry it out. The functional use of insulin is the most effective method of treatment of diabetes requiring insulin available today. This book of Functional Insulin Treatment, FIT, shows how to put it into practice. Previous diabetes education programs have adapted the patient's life style to the conditions of therapy. The goal of FIT is to avoid/delay late complications while tailoring the therapy to the life of the patient: whether with multiple daily injections or with controllable infusion, the diabetic person trained in FIT is able to dose her/his insulin according to its actual function, i.e., either for eating or for fasting or for correction of hyperglycemia, so that she/he achieves both, the target glycemic control and the freedom to fast or to eat whenever, whatever and how much she/he wants. Included are new strategies for patient motivation, new insulin analogs, management of nutrition in overweight, easy estimations of algorithms for starting functional use of insulin and everything that makes flexible treatment an indispensable solution for every interested self-responsible person who needs insulin.
