Understanding SmartBolus Calculator Calculations 1818 Understanding SmartBolus Calculator Calculations
Example 2
Eating 30 g carbs, no meal or correction IOB. Used sensor glucose value of
10 mmol/L, with a rising trend.
Correction Bolus
1.2 U
Your glucose is
10 mmol/L, which is
2.8 mmol/L over your target.
Because your correction factor
is 2.8, the initial correction
bolus is 1 U.
Sensor = 10, Target Glucose = 7.2
Correction Factor = 2.8
(10-7.2) / 2.8 = 1 U
Meal IOB adjustment
Meal IOB = 0 U
1 U – 0 U = 1 U
The SmartBolus Calculator
does not adjust your
correction bolus by the meal
IOB since there is no meal IOB.
Correction IOB adjustment
Correction IOB = 0 U
1 U - 0 U = 1 U
Adjusted correction bolus = 1.2 U
Adjusted for Sensor: Rising
The SmartBolus Calculator
also does not adjust your
correction bolus by the
correction IOB since there is no
correction IOB.
The correction bolus is
increased to account for your
rising sensor glucose trend.
Meal Bolus
3.6 U
You are eating 30 g carbs. With
your IC ratio at 10, you will
need a 3 U meal bolus.
The SmartBolus Calculator
does not adjust your meal
bolus by the correction IOB
since there is no correction
IOB.
Carbs = 30 g, IC Ratio = 10 g/U
30 / 10 = 3 U
Correction IOB adjustment
Remaining correction IOB = 0 U
3 U – 0 U = 3 U
Adjusted meal bolus = 3.6 U
Adjusted for Sensor: Rising
The SmartBolus Calculator
does not adjust your meal
bolus by the correction IOB
since there is no correction IOB.
The meal bolus is increased to
account for your rising sensor
glucose trend.
Calculated Bolus
4.8 U
The calculated bolus is the
sum of your correction bolus
and meal bolus that has been
adjusted for the rising sensor
glucose value.
Total Bolus
4.8 U
The total bolus is the sum of
the calculated bolus and any
adjustment you made.
