Using the Bolus Wizard feature 75
Example 4: BG above target (high BG) with active insulin
Michael is at school and wants to eat a snack in the late morning. He tests his BG with his linked meter
and finds it to be at 200 mg/dL, which is above his target of 120 mg/dL. He estimates that his snack
contains 60 grams of carbohydrate, so he enters 60 into the pump when prompted by the Bolus Wizard
feature. Based on his settings, and as a result of 1.5 units of active insulin, his pump will suggest that he
take 4.5 units.
