A 25 page proposal to evaluate the efficacy of insulin pump therapy verses that of magnetic release polymer therapy for Type I Diabetes Mellitus. Provides a review of the literature and presents the hypothesis that insulin pump therapy will perform either equivalently to or superior to magnetic polymer delivery systems for insulin delivery. Suggests experimental methodology for testing this hypothesis and supports the contention that this performance can be judged through a comparison of HbA1c values, body mass index (BMI), and hypoglycemic episodes before and after initiation of therapy with data provided in the literature. Includes an extensive discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of each type of treatment methodology. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
