Abstract
The past 20 yr have seen an explosion in advances for the management of Type I diabetes mellitus. Not only new delivery systems, such as the continuous subcutaneous insulin pump, but also better and more stable types of insulin with predictable pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics have been developed. An artificial pancreas is now on the horizon. This progress has had a significant impact on modern perioperative care of the diabetic patient.
