Short- and long-term complications of insulin pump therapy in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes: a multicenter cross-sectional study from Saudi Arabia
Technical and dermatological complications were common, increasing with longer pump use. Proper infusion site rotation, infusion set management, and improved patient education are key to reducing adverse effects. To improve safety and efficacy, future studies should concentrate on infusion set change patterns, newer pump technologies, and standardized guidelines.
