Total Daily Dose (TDD) of insulin
TDD Result
0
TDD = Weight × Factor
The TDD represents the total daily insulin requirement for a patient with diabetes.
Insulin to Carb Ratio (ICR)
Used for carbohydrate coverage calculation
ICR Result
0
ICR = Rule ÷ TDD
The ICR indicates how many grams of carbohydrates are
covered by 1 unit of insulin.
Carbohydrate Coverage Dose
the amount of insulin required.
Dose Result
0
. Carbohydrate Coverage Dose = Total grams of CHO ÷ ICR
The carbohydrate coverage dose represents the amount of insulin
required to cover the carbohydrates in a meal.
Insulin Sensitivity Factor (ISF)
ISF Result
0
ISF = Rule ÷ TDD
to determines how much 1 unit of insulin will lower the blood
glucose level.
Insulin Correction Dose
Used for hyperglycemia correction
Correction Result
0
. Correction Dose = (Current blood glucose - Target blood
glucose) + ISF
