SSH Sponsors Insulin Pump Workshop
Dr. Wiam Hussein, the Head of the Diabetes and Endocrinology section at SSH, organized the first insulin pump workshop in the Eastern Province, sponsored by Saad Specialist Hospital (SSH). The workshop aimed to educate endocrinologists, dietitians, and diabetes educators about the innovative insulin pump technology, which provides a more efficient and flexible insulin delivery system for diabetic patients. The insulin pump, a small computerized device, delivers precise insulin doses, mimicking the body’s normal insulin release and allowing for better glucose control. The two-day event included lectures and hands-on workshops, and further sessions are planned to support the community's hospitals.
