Insulin Treatment Of Diabetes Mellitus, H. St. George Tucker Jan 1977

Insulin Treatment Of Diabetes Mellitus, H. St. George Tucker

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In summary, I believe in aiming for the best possible control for each patient through an empirical approach which seeks to arrive at the best schedule for the individual patient. We want especially tight control for the pregnant diabetic, and for this patient it is likely that multiple insulin injections are needed. If further experience confirms the benefits of multiple injections for juvenile patients, this type of treatment may also be indicated for these patients.
