We observed the curative effect of the 3C insulin system in combination with non‐invasive ventilation in a patient with type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). The 3C insulin pump is a system of devices that closely monitors and effectively regulates blood glucose levels. Non‐invasive ventilation has been shown to be an effective treatment for OSAS. A type 2 diabetes patient with concomitant OSAS was treated with a 3C insulin pump system for real‐time continuous glucose monitoring and nocturnal non‐invasive ventilation for OSAS. Treatment‐induced diabetic remission with improved sleep and reduced hypoglycemic episodes was achieved. Therefore, the 3C insulin pump system, in combination with non‐invasive ventilation, is an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes patients with concomitant OSAS. We observed the curative effect of 3C insulin system in combination with noninvasive ventilation in a patient with type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). These treatment induced a diabetic remission with improved sleep and reduced hypoglycemia episodes.
