Calculator guidelines
When the suggested bolus calculator is turned
On
, the OmniPod
System applies these guidelines to the suggested bolus doses:
•
Suggested bolus doses are rounded down to the nearest
0.05U.
•
If the total of the suggested bolus calculation (correction
bolus plus meal bolus) is less than zero, the suggested bolus
dose is 0.00U.
•
The System will not suggest a bolus dose if your current
blood glucose (BG) reading is below the minimum BG you
have set for bolus calculation (see Chapter 2, Getting Started,
and Chapter 6, Using the Personal Diabetes Manager).
•
The System suggests a correction bolus only when your BG
reading is above the
correction threshold
or correct-above
value you have set (see Chapter 2, Getting Started, and
Chapter 6, Using the Personal Diabetes Manager).
•
Insulin on board (active insulin) is subtracted first from a cor-
rection bolus (if any) until it is zero. At that point, the remain-
ing insulin on board is subtracted from the meal bolus.
•
The calculated insulin on board is rounded up to the nearest
0.05U.
•
A reverse correction only occurs if the meal bolus is greater
than 0.00U.
•
If your blood glucose value is below the target blood glucose
value and you have set
reverse correction
to
On,
the sug-
gested correction bolus is subtracted from the suggested
meal bolus. If you have set reverse correction to
Off
, the
System will not subtract insulin from the suggested meal
bolus dose.
If you manually increase or decrease the suggested bolus, the
following rules are applied:
•
If you increase a suggested bolus, the increase is applied to
the meal bolus unless there is no meal bolus, in which case it
is applied to the correction bolus.
•
If you decrease a suggested bolus, the decrease is applied to
the meal bolus until it reaches zero; then it is applied to the
correction bolus. If there is no meal bolus, the decrease is
applied to the correction bolus.
