High Glucose Issues
Issue Possible cause What you can do
Aer using the
system for a couple
of weeks, sensor
glucose values are
running high aer
breakfast. e
Insulin to Carb ratio
is the same.
One of the benets
of automated
insulin delivery is
the greater ability to
stay closer to your
Target Glucose
overnight. What
this oen means
is that, prior to
breakfast, there is
less insulin in your
body compared
with Manual Mode.
It is common to need changes
to your Insulin to Carb ratio,
generally a lowering of the ratio
to receive more insulin before
meals (for example, lowering the
carbohydrate value covered by
1 U of insulin). Another setting
that you can change is Reverse
Correction. When the toggle for
this is ON (blue), it means the
calculator will recommend less
insulin when your sensor glucose
value or blood glucose reading is
below your Target Glucose.
