Ex) TDD =units so /= If current premeal BG is and the target BG isyou would take the current BG subtract the Correction Factor = ÷ Total Daily Insulin Dose =unit of insulin will reduce the blood glucose so many mg/dl. (the grams of CHO disposed of byunit of insulin is the bottom number or denominator of the Insulin:CHO ratio) Insulin Dose Calculations Worksheet) What are you eating? Current blood. It uses three pieces: The. target blood glucose, the insulin sensitivity and the insulin to First, you have to calculate the carbohydrate coverage insulin dose using this formula: CHO insulin dose. If it has been less than What is it? This can be calculated using the Rule of “”. 3) How many carbs in that amount? This can be calculated using the Rule of “”. How many carbs in that amount? 2) How much are you having? Example: Assume your total daily insulin dose (TDI) = lbs ÷=units; In this example: Correction Factor or Insulin Sensitivity (ISF) = ÷ TDI (units) What is it? It uses three pieces: The. target blood glucose, the insulin sensitivity and the insulin to carbohydrate ratio or ICR. The target blood glucose is the number to which the formula should lower the blood glucose after insulin is given What is your blood sugar? The insulin sensitivity formula is used to calculate rapid acting insulin doses. What are you eating? Example Insulin Dose Calculations Worksheet. Target BG glucose (BG) Dose for food (units) Dose for BG (units) Calculating Insulin Sensitivity Factor (AKA Correction Factor) divided by Total Daily Dose of insulin (TDD) if patient uses rapid acting insulin. Carbs eating Calculate units/kg/day body weight (called total daily dose) AM dose = 2/3 of total daily dosebefore breakfast Greater than Greater thanIncrease AM dose byunits. 2) How much are you having? Increase AM dose byunits Correction Factor = ÷ Total Daily Insulin Dose =unit of insulin will reduce the blood glucose so many mg/dl. 3) How many carbs in that amount? The insulin sensitivity formula is used to calculate rapid acting insulin doses. Insulin Dose Calculations Worksheet 1) What are you eating? Total grams of CHO in the meal.
