The first insulin pump was developed in 1963 by Dr. Arnold Kadish, it delivered glucagon and insulin and was about the size of an adult backpack. Insulin pumps deliver insulin in a steady measured and continuous dose (basal dose) and as a surge dose (basal dose) around meal time.
When was the insulin pump invented and for what purpose?
