My comment:

mplantable insulin pumps

Implantable insulin pumps were developed in the 1970s. They are inserted under general anaesthetic and carry a reservoir of U400 strength insulin, which is four times the strength of conventional U100 insulin used in the United Kingdom. The insulin lasts between one and two months before requiring a repeat operation to refill the reservoir. The pump user has a remote control to select their insulin dose. As with insulin delivery via a pre-inserted channel, the insulin is delivered into the abdomen, thereby reducing insulin resistance and enabling people to use lower doses of insulin. They also carry an increased risk of infections and blockages. The cost of these devices is high, and currently they are not used in the United Kingdom.

My comment:

This sounds like the anaesthetist is placing an intravascular device, such as a central line.

I agree, though in this context it is more likely "deploying implantable insulin pump"
