Perioperative maintenance of hybrid closed loop insulin pump systems in youth with type 1 diabetes mellitus: A case series.

Current guidelines support the use of continuous glucose monitoring devices and insulin pumps in minor surgical procedures for pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. However, there are few reported cases of using hybrid closed loop technology in the perioperative period. This retrospective case series presents seven pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes who underwent eight surgical procedures with maintenance of hybrid closed loop systems. This paper also provides considerations for future use of hybrid closed loop systems perioperatively.
