Insulin sensitivity (IS) is one of the important diagnostic parameters used in treatments of diabetes, hypertension and other diseases as well as during evaluation of new drug therapies. Euglycaemic glucose clamp is the most accurate method of the IS measurement. Effectiveness of this procedure depends on accuracy of the tissue glucose utilization measurements (GU) and proper realization of the insulin infusion. Application of the accurate glucose control algorithm, sampling site, sampling frequency, duration of the procedure are also very important factors. Possible technical realization includes manual, semi-automatic and automatic modes. Recently the computerized semi-automatic system realizing this type of measurement has been designed and developed in the IBBE PAS. A developed system consist of control unit, infusion unit, glycaemia measurement unit and printer. Endogenous glucose secretion is suppressed by insulin infusion, which is determined according to individual patients parameters. The newest version of the measurement procedure allows to realize euglycaemic or normoglycaemic clamp studies. TISS system is inexpensive and easily operated by one person from middle medical staff. Till now GU measurements using TISS system were performed on over 200 patients in 4 Polish clinical centers. Developed and clinically tested TISS system seems to provide satisfying quality of the GU measurement in men.
