Insulin sensitivity
Your insulin sensitivity is the amount your blood glucose (BG) level is reduced by one unit of insulin. This value is
used to calculate a suggested insulin dose to correct a high BG. Because this sensitivity may vary throughout the
day, your pump lets you set up to eight sensitivity settings. Your healthcare professional may only have you program
one or two insulin sensitivities when you first start using the Bolus Wizard feature. Record your settings in the Bolus
Wizard feature settings table in this chapter.
Insulin sensitivity values are normally between 20 - 100 mg/dL (1.1 - 5.6 mmol/L). If your value is outside this range,
a warning message will appear on the screen.
