Subcutaneous insulin administration has come a long way; pens that are connected to smartphones/cloud enable data transfer about insulin dosing. The usage of detailed dosing information in a smart way can support the optimization of insulin therapy in many ways. This review discusses terminology aspects that are relevant to the optimal usage of this novel option for insulin administration. Taking such aspects into account might also be crucial to improving the uptake of these medical products. In contrast to systems for automated insulin delivery, people with diabetes have to administer the insulin dose themselves; the technology can only support them. Combining smart pens with systems for continuous glucose monitoring provides solutions that are close to an automated solution, but are more discrete and associated with lower costs.
皮下胰岛素给药已经取得了长足的进步；连接到智能手机/云的笔能够实现胰岛素剂量数据的传输。以智能方式使用详细的剂量信息可以在许多方面支持胰岛素治疗的优化。本综述讨论了与这种新型胰岛素给药方式的最佳使用相关的术语方面。考虑这些方面对于提高这些医疗产品的接受度也可能至关重要。与自动胰岛素输送系统不同，糖尿病患者必须自行注射胰岛素剂量；该技术只能为他们提供支持。将智能笔与连续血糖监测系统相结合提供了接近自动解决方案的方案，但更不显眼且成本更低。
