Q: What is an infusion set?

&lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0px; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;An insulin infusion set connects the insulin pump delivery device to your body. It works the same way as an IV line. A needle is housed inside a cannula, a tiny plastic tube that is usually placed under the skin in the subcutaneous fat. It is required that the needle should puncture the skin to insert the set. After insertion, the needle is removed and the cannula remains in place.&lt;/p&gt;
