Algorithm for calculating insulin needs

fer's profile photo   12/19/2014 9:54 a.m.

It has often been discussed in the forum on the difficulty in calculating the insulin units necessary for type 1 diabetics, and certainly, it is not easy, and it is not an exact science, the number of factors on which it depends makes itcomplicated hitting.

To illustrate this complexity, and also to facilitate the understanding of how many factors affect, a calculation algorithm has been developed that illustrates this problem quite well, here I leave it, at first it costs to follow, but if you spend a little time,You end up square.;-)

And an experienced diabetic doing it by eye, is controlled better than another that will try to apply this algorithm.

En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?

  

Inapplicable.I imagine that it will be to program informally because for a patient it is not worth.

Padre de Jesús. Bomba insulina y dexcom g4 share. Debut con 18 meses....ya con 7 añitos...Hemo entorno a 7....y mucha lucha diaria.....ya sabéis..poco dormir y bastantes miedos....pero mi niño es feliz luego yo también.

  

But why do regular insulin want, 30 minutes before meals, if there are already rapids?
Nothing, the glucometer and that each one is fixed, because every day it will be different, do what you do ...

Of course very curved ...

Too bad the sun hit you 10 minutes on your forehead ... or sneeze 3 times in a row ... or you reach the mailbox a traffic envelope (fine) and the cold sweat falls ... or repeat the pizza that youYou've eaten ... or pique you a mosquito on your shoulder and scratch you 8 times ... or you laugh when reading this ... so that all this is useless and end with a beautiful hypo, or in the stratosphere.

I see it a bit like give you a fantastic technical manual to change the Trócola Board :)

It is clear that ours is not a simple science, if we really put all the missing factors, this picture would be huge!

Fer, we are so different that it cannot be generalized .. we make our own algorithms every day .. :)

If the schemes that Maria de Social and Natural brings me already scare me !!!!I don't even tell you this !!!There if one day I can get to understand it ..... it would be a sign that I know and I understand something more of diabetes ..... because today it seems that he knows less and less on the subject ...

We are in the same situation, @aliciaalicia.I had read the rule of 1800?, which is a much more simple operation.Although with this I suppose it will be more wrong.

@Ceciii some time ago on this issue, now I don't have it by hand, I will look for it and tell you when I can.

On @pike's question and the concern of @aliciaalicia there are many issues in what we clarify, take a look at this link:

And @aliciaalicia a recommendation, do not get over!It is all the good that can be had, and as you will see in my signature, so far, without complications.;)

They probably have not taught you because it cannot be taught, as the saying goes "every master has its bookHow do you see that you are working with the most convenient doses for you.
Much encouragement and above all patience !!
