The smart patch can potentially improve the life of a diabetic patient without the painful insulin injections. In type I patients naturally producing insulin cells are destroyed and as a result the body does not produce the insulin to control the blood sugar levels. Insulin injected under the skin into the blood is currently the most efficient way to deliver insulin into the blood stream. Insulin types vary depending on onset, peak time, and duration of effects. The time of onset, or the time it takes to reach your blood stream and begin working, is any where from 15 minutes to several hours. The duration, or amount of time it can last, is from 2 hours to 24 hours.
