18 Understanding SmartBolus Calculator Calculations
Insulin to Carb
Ratio
1-150
grams
To calculate total bolus volume.
You can adjust this value in your Omnipod 5
System settings. e value indicates the grams
of carbohydrate covered by one unit of insulin.
Duration of Insu-
lin Action
2-6
hours
To calculate total bolus volume.
You can adjust this value in your Omnipod 5
System settings. e value indicates how long
insulin remains in eect aer the bolus has
been delivered.
Meal IOB Portion 0-X
Units
To calculate total bolus volume.
e value is known by the Omnipod 5 System
and used by the Calculator to indicate any
previously delivered Meal Boluses that may
still be in eect.
Target Glucose 6.1–8.3
mmol/L
To calculate total bolus volume.
You can adjust this value in your Omnipod 5
System settings. In Automated Mode, basal
insulin delivery will be adjusted automatically
to bring you towards your Target Glucose. e
value informs the Correction Bolus volume.
SmartAdjust™ technology (Automated Mode)
Target Glucose 6.1–8.3
mmol/L
To calculate total bolus volume.
You can adjust this value in your
Omnipod 5 System settings. In Automated
Mode, basal insulin delivery will be adjusted
automatically to bring you towards your
Target Glucose. e value informs the
Correction Bolus volume.
Correction IOB

Units
To calculate total bolus volume.
is value is known by the Omnipod 5
System and used by the Bolus Calculator to
indicate any previously delivered Correction
Boluses that may still be in eect.
Using Omnipod 5 with a compatible Sensor
Sensor Glucose
Value
2.2–22.2
mmol/L
To calculate total bolus volume.
If you choose to use a Sensor, you can select
USE SENSOR directly in the Bolus Calculator.
As a safety constraint, the Calculator will only
accept sensor glucose values that are on trend
with previous sensor glucose values.
