“…It defines tools such as the insulin sensitivity factor (ISF), also known as the CF, and the carbohydrate‐to‐insulin ratio (CIR). These tools, empirically estimated from clinical protocols [12], are used to compute insulin boluses depending on BG level, BG target, meal carbohydrates (CHO) content, and the insulin on board (IOB) still active from previous boluses. - The correction bolus , depending on the patient's CF, BG level and BG target, is
- The meal bolus depends on the patient's CIR and the amount of CHO in the meal
- The IOB is the number of insulin units that are still active in the body.
