Example 5: Blood glucose below target (low blood glucose) with active insulin

Another day at school, Michael is getting ready to eat lunch. He tests his blood glucose with his meter

and finds it to be at 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L), which is below his Low BG T

arget of 90 mg/dL (5.0

mmol/L). His reading is automatically sent to his pump.

When prompted by the Bolus Wizard feature, he enters his carbohydrate amount of 60 grams in the

ENTER FOOD screen. Based on his settings, and despite 1.5 units of active insulin, his pump will suggest

that he take 3.5 units of insulin.
