Choosing the Right Infusion Set
An infusion set delivers insulin from the pump to your body.
An infusion set consists of three parts:
1. A length of thin, flexible tubing
2. A tiny needle (cannula) that is
inserted under the skin
3. A plastic connector joining the tube and cannula
There are many options to choose from when selecting an infusion set. Choosing a set that provides the features and benefits to fit your needs is important for effective pumping. Here are some of the choices you will have to make.
Cannula Type
Steel
• Less likely to twist or kink, cutting off the insulin supply
Softer Material (such as Teflon®)
• More comfortable to
insert and wear, particularly for active lifestyles
• Can be worn longer before a change
Insertion Method Cannula/Needle
Manual Insertion Length
• Greater control of the speed and angle of needle placement
Inserter Device
• May be easier to use on difficult-to-reach areas
• May “hide” the needle if seeing it makes you uncomfortable
• Typically based on your body type and insertion angle of your set
• Ask your doctor or health care provider to help you determine the length that offers the most effective insulin delivery for you
