Chapter 11: Treatment Decisions
Treatment Decisions: Arrows Going Down
Actions to consider when you're:
• Low: Eat. Did you have too much insulin or exercise?
• High: Watch and wait. Did you have too much insulin or exercise?
• In target range: Eat
Treatment Decisions: No Arrow
No arrow means you can’t use your G6 to make a treatment decision. Use your meter.
11.7 Check In With Jake and Kelly
How do you use the trend arrow? Let’s check in with Jake and Kelly to see how they
use it to fine-tune their treatment decisions.
Hey – Jake here! My G6 reading is 330 with an up arrow right now. That’s high for me.
I’m trying to figure out what to do. An hour ago, I ate lunch and took insulin for it.
