Abstract
Artificial pancreas is a technique developed to automatically control blood glucose in people with diabetes by providing an endocrine function instead of a healthy pancreas. The technique was developed for the replacement of insulin secretion deficiencies among various exocrine and endocrine functions of the pancreas and is mainly used for people with type 1 diabetes or those who need intensive insulin treatment. This review briefly summarizes the working principles, components, recent clinical research, and future perspectives of artificial pancreas.
