Looking for information on "Untethered Pump" by curiosity PQ for me is a totally new topic, of what I have encountered (mostly in English) I would highlight:
About the motivation to apply it:
Main motivation that people comment is to make long -term bomb disconnections to do things like: sport (I imagine contact sports), to be able to swim (pool, beach, river ...), forBeing able to dive ... and also comment on other things among which is being able to avoid ketoacidosis but I have not seen that this is the most important motivation (I have not traveled all the pages and all the Internet forums in the bone world that may be that there may bebeen bad luck for me).
About the type of insulins used:
As for the number are 2 insulins: a basal insulin and the rapid action analogThat mostly if this of Untethered is used, the basal lantus insulin is used, the few places where it is documented or where they simply explain how to apply the issue of Untethered Pump only talk about Lantus (I have not traveled all the pages and all the forums and all the forumsfrom the internet of the bone world that may have been bad luck for me).
I highlight because I was the one I qualified to this whole matter as a buried without going into many details (I could edit the posts and make that disappear but I think nothing happens because that is there) but @water102, you described it as barbarityIf this was done using basal lantus insulin (and nobody felt offended by it) I mean that it is a technical draw regarding the theme of qualifiers.
On the used doses:
Person who has coined the term "Untethered", Steve Edelman, uses this guideline (at the end of the post I will put some URLs):
A Friday: Utethered regime: basal = 75% lantus + 25% pump and then the bolos of the pump.
Week: multidosis regime: basal = 100% lantus and then for bowling the same rapid action analogue with which the pump loads but in feathers.
Week is a "mixed" treatment and the weekend is a normal multiple injections treatment, Lantus's puncture puts it at night and makes the changes on Friday night and Sunday night./li>
In the places where I have read people who use or have used the east issue of Untethered the percentages that I have mostly seen are more or less out there (75-80% with Lantus, the remaining 20-25% with the pump) and in some case less common I have seen percentages of 60 % of Lantus even a rarely rare case of 100 % of Lantus always and the pump only for bowling.
Disconnection times there is a lotBut it's the least, that will see what they want to do.
On the one hand, disconnection times and focusing only on basal percentages I have not seen anywhere that they explain/comment PQ no lower percentages of those of the basal insulin are used but it can (eye, I only say can) that)whether below those percentages there are no "advantages" (bone, glycemia will rise quickly and the ketone bodies will also appear).
About people who use or have used Untethered:
Read very few adult people using the east theme, the person who has coined the term "Untethered" (Steve Edelman) and little more, what I have seen is that most cases are children with insulin bomb and aThe ones I have read are the parents and the latter explains some things:
Person whoIt has diabetes (the child) is not the person who handles treatment, it is the parents who remove/put/go up/down/click/cut, the child in principle has no idea of diabetes or has to think so many times in diabetesAs parents do not have an idea of the extra work of this type of treatment or anything, the parents do not care about all the extra work for a child they do whatever it takes and if for the child to have more mobility to do sports or haveMore freedom in the summer months because they do it and period.
It is curious that when children grow and get more involved in their diabetes, they begin to decide and begin to be those who handle the treatment (and not third parties) voluntarily move to use 100% pump (bone 100%bomb).
The commented block a lot with what is seen in the forums are where they are: adults who are with pump using 100% pump well PQ have always used 100% bomb or because the four cats that have ever used the subjectof Untethered over time they have moved without anyone pressing them to use 100% bomb.
The number of people who use or has used this (for different reasons) is very small.
The inconveniences (all the inconveniences of the pump treatment + some inconvenience of multidosis treatments) personally I think they exceed the advantages.

The article gives to be widely commented on a separate thread, but hey, I will only make a comment: as a user that I am from the Lantus insulin every time I see a graphic representation and paint it with a straight line I can not help you smile...
Thread "Untethered vs. 100% pump" of the Forums.childrenwithdiabetes.com forum where there are opinions of all types (in favor and against, people who use or have used this, advantages, inconveniences, ...)::

In that same forum there are more threads where they talk about "Untethered".
