Dr. Janež Andrej will
introduce how to implement FIT into

Functional insulin therapy is a
teaching approach of intensified
insulin therapy.
Its aim is to transfer the
decisional process and the
management of its insulin treatment
to the patient, according to the
various activities of everyday life,
and particularly meals.
Application of the functional
insulin therapy in practice requires
a specific teaching program,
preferably ambulatory, in real
everyday life conditions, and it
should be carried out by a staff
highly qualified in diabetology.

to implement the functional insulin
therapy in practice. Each
