Abstract

Increasing Endocrinology Education: Fellow Perceptions of Insulin Pumps and Continuous Glucose Monitors

Delgo Hurado*

Advancements in technology have revolutionized the field of endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism (EDM), with Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) and Insulin Pumps (IPs) playing a pivotal role in diabetes management. Beyond patient care, these devices are gaining recognition as valuable educational tools for graduating EDM fellows. This article explores the perceptions of fellows regarding the benefits of wearing CGMs and/or IPs during their training [1]. The integration of technology in medical education, enhanced patient empathy, personalized learning, bridging theory and practice, interdisciplinary collaboration, and associated challenges are discussed. The insights gathered from graduating fellows emphasize the educational value of these devices in providing experiential learning and fostering holistic patient care [2].
