In‐flight glycaemic control using automated insulin delivery systems: A within‐subject comparative pilot study
AID systems maintained robust glycaemic control and safety during commercial flights, comparable to ground-based conditions. These data support the feasibility of in-flight AIDs use and provide a basis for future regulatory and clinical practice updates. Larger, multicenter studies are needed to generalize findings.
