sensor driven insulin pumps in the hospital

Has anyone updated their home insulin pump in the hospital policy to include language surrounding the use of sensor driven insulin pumps? Our endocrinologists are asking to update the policy but there still a lot of questions on next steps and safety on these newer insulin pumps.

Appreciate any thoughts/guidance and updated policies if you have them!

Thanks
Lindsey
