INAOE creates an artificial pancreas for diabetic people (Mexico)

Researchers from the National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics (INAOE) develop an artificial pancreas that will support people suffering from diabetes.The device that develops doctors and specialists in the engineering area, verifies the exact insulin dose required by a person who faces health problems due to the functioning of their pancreas.

Eduardo Tepichín Rodríguez, a researcher in the Image Sciences area of ​​INAOE, stressed that from the inter -institutional collaboration, doctors who have specific needs to meet diabetes, are supported by engineers who can apply technological developments for direct benefit of thepopulation and create an artificial pancreas.

Diabetes is a chronic disease in which the body cannot regulate the amount of blood sugar.Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas to control blood sugar.Diabetes can be caused by very little insulin production, resistance to this or both.

“This artificial organ can properly verify the dose of insulin that patients suffering from diabetes have to be applied.In general, we are working around the generation of new diagnostic techniques and treatment of different diseases, ”he said.

In an interview, Tepichín Rodríguez stressed that the project adds four years of work and is expected to be concluded so that it can be occupied in public health institutions.

“The artificial body could be taken to the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS), as well as for some private hospitals and laboratories in order to help patients and obtain new results to improve the artificial pancreas.We are working in Aavances to be at the forefront in Health Sciences Technologies.The public institution is an important part of the linking and exchange of experiences for the update of the researchers, ”he said.

It turns out that they do not have qualified medical staff in diabetes ( Link and what a coincidence that a pancreas have createdartificial.It seems a bit of a joke, that without having professionals it is the engineers who know of diabetes and believe a pancreas, the next thing that it will be that the doctors of such hospital have developed a plane with surgical material ??.;;)

This news is the perfect example of smoke vendors.They don't tell anything, they show nothing, they just say obvious about diabetes and "artificial pancreas" and remain so panchos.You could say that it is a joke how luvi if it were not because we are already even the most common in the news about diabetes.

Let's see ... a news is about that it will be reality here in 2018. The Clinic hospital in Barcelona puts my niece on the waiting list of the first since it is not regulated or with the pump despite adequate diet (it has whimNight) ... both "smoke 'should not be ...
I'm going to find out about Mexico to see ...
