Hi forer@s!
On Saturday, having dinner with my partner and some friends, we were discussing how the bomb is managing basal insulin ... my friend and I agreed that it should be like a continuous drip, which for example, if I have a basal that tells meThat from 4 to 8 in the morning I have to put 0.8, because that one must go by this time (I think it is per hour) and my partner said that then as I did the pump to spend more insulin for example if youI say that instead of 0.8, that it passes 1.1 ... that it cannot be that it opens more or less ... and he said that he sure puts me 0.8 every hour in that interval, that is,0.8 at 4, 0.8 at 5 and so ...
Does anyone know how it works?PQ now we are with doubt ... it's just curiosity ...

Well, in case anyone has the same curiosity as me, I asked my endocrine and told me how Tica answered me, that it goes from time to time ... depending on whether it must happen more or less insulin, that time is more oftenor less ...;)

Yes, the insulin is putting you every x minutes.More or less 3, I think it is.So the amount that has to put in 1 hour divides it between 3 and gives you the insulin that puts you every time it makes the infusion.
