In order to maintain the levels of sugar in the blood, what devices are commonly being used?(a) Glucometer(b) Insulin Pump(c) Gluco Strips(d) Potable Pulse OximeterThe question was posed to me in semester exam.This intriguing question comes from Artificial Organs topic in division Rehabilitation and Recovery of Clinical Science

Answer» RIGHT option is (b) INSULIN Pump

Explanation: Insulin pump almost works like an artificial pancreas. They have detectors which keep monitoring the amount of sugar in the blood periodically and if the sugar exceeds normal levels, insulin is injected in them. Glucometer and Gluco Strips are ways of checking the amount of sugar in the body. If these devices are used then the insulin NEEDS to be given MANUALLY. Potable pulse oximeter is used to MEASURE the amount of oxygen in the blood which can be indicative of the amount.
