Advances in insulin delivery technologies have led to the development of tubeless "patch" systems; however, these devices still involve a level of complexity. We surveyed individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes to explore their attitudes and satisfaction after using the CeQur Simplicity insulin patch (SIP) for 2 months. Transition to the SIP yielded significant increases in respondents' overall treatment satisfaction, less diabetes burden, and improvements in psychological well-being compared with respondents' prior insulin delivery method.
