Yes, there are! It’s an insulin pump called the Medtronic MiniMed 670G. It attaches a sensor under the skin, monitors blood sugar levels in real time, and automatically adjusts insulin doses based on those levels. It’s essentially an “autopilot,” significantly reducing the burden of blood sugar management for diabetics.

Are there any devices that can track heart rhythms long-term? It’s inconvenient to go to the hospital for tests every time.
