Source text - English Insulin Patches
Consumers are used to seeing skin patches that deliver nicotine and birth control, but will diabetics ever be able to use a patch that delivers insulin? Researchers have found that ultrasonic transmission is an effective means of insulin delivery, which paved the way for the U-Strip Insulin Delivery System, still in clinical testing. The concept includes a small battery-powered ultrasonic device, which, when attached to a transdermal patch, would enlarge the skin’s pores, enabling large molecule drug delivery. The patch is in its second phase of human testing, this time to address skin sensitivity.
Implantable Devices
Implantable medical devices must overcome biocompatibility problems to avoid the device being attacked by the user’s own immune system. Research is well underway on different implantable insulin devices that will create long-term alternatives for diabetics who rely on insulin. The implantable pump is one such device that would be permanently implanted to measure blood sugar levels and deliver the exact amount of insulin needed, making it possible to approximate actual insulin delivery from a pancreas. Users could control the amount of insulin delivered with a remote control and refill the pump every two to three months. The implantable insulin capsule is a similar device that would continuously release insulin into the bloodstream. The capsule contains insulin-secreting cells that use the body’s own nutrients to produce insulin indefinitely. These products still require more testing to determine the long-term effects of such delivery methods.
Translation - Spanish Parches de insulina
Los usuarios están acostumbrados a ver parches dérmicos que administran nicotina y anticonceptivos, pero ¿podrán los diabéticos alguna vez llegar a usar un parche que administre insulina? Los investigadores han descubierto que la transmisión ultrasónica es una manera eficaz de administrar insulina, lo que allanó el camino para el desarrollo del Sistema de administración de insulina U-Strip, que aún está en la etapa de pruebas clínicas. Este concepto incluye un dispositivo ultrasónico pequeño que funciona a batería. Este dispositivo, al fijarse a un parche transdérmico, agrandaría los poros de la piel, lo que permitiría la administración de fármacos de moléculas grandes. El parche se encuentra en la segunda fase de pruebas en seres humanos; en esta fase se evalúa la sensibilidad de la piel.
Dispositivos implantables
Los dispositivos médicos implantables deben superar los problemas de biocompatibilidad para evitar que el dispositivo sea atacado por el propio sistema inmunitario del usuario. Las investigaciones están bastante avanzadas respecto de diferentes dispositivos implantables de insulina que ofrecerán alternativas a largo plazo para los diabéticos insulinodependientes. La bomba implantable es un dispositivo que se implantaría en forma permanente, con el fin de medir los niveles de azúcar en sangre y administrar la cantidad exacta de insulina que se necesita. Esto permitiría aproximarnos a la administración de insulina real del páncreas. Los usuarios podrían controlar la cantidad de insulina administrada con un control remoto y reabastecer la bomba cada dos o tres meses. La cápsula de insulina implantable es un dispositivo similar que liberaría insulina en forma continua hacia la circulación sanguínea. La cápsula contiene células que segregan insulina, que utilizan los nutrientes del organismo para producir insulina indefinidamente. Sin embargo, todavía es necesario realizar más pruebas con estos productos para determinar los efectos a largo plazo de estos métodos de administración.
