CA 2456484

The invention relates to a method for minimizing mean blood glucose levels in an insulin dependent patient by administering insulin to the patient in a sufficiently fast manner to provide a difference of 50% or less between high and low blood glucose levels. Advantageously, the insulin is administered to the patient by jet injection and the high and low blood glucose levels differ by an amount that is less than that which would be obtained after injection of insulin by a conventional needle syringe. The invention also relates to a method for reducing mean blood glucose levels in an insulin dependent patient that is receiving insulin through a conventional syringe and needle arrangement. This method provides for administration of the insulin to the patient by jet injection rather than by the syringe by substituting a jet injector for the syringe.

L'invention porte sur un procédé visant à minimiser les taux de glucose sanguin moyens d'un patient insulino-dépendant en administrant à ce patient de l'insuline d'une manière suffisamment rapide pour obtenir une différence inférieure ou égale à 50 % entre les taux élevés et bas de glucose dans le sang. L'insuline est administrée au patient, de façon plus favorable, sans aiguille, et les taux élevés et bas de glucose dans le sang diffèrent d'une quantité inférieure à celle que l'on aurait obtenue après injection avec une seringue à aiguille traditionnelle. L'invention porte également sur un procédé de réduction des taux moyens de glucose dans le sang chez un patient insulino-dépendant, ce procédé consistant à recevoir l'insuline par un ensemble seringue/aiguille traditionnel. Ce procédé permet d'administrer l'insuline au patient, par injection sans aiguille, en remplaçant la seringue par un dermo-jet ou pistolet à injection.
