Bolus Calculation
18.6 Bolus Calculation
18.6.1 Meal Bolus
The bolus advice feature calculates your insulin doses based on
different pieces of information. Examples:
jj Your current blood glucose result
jj Your current blood glucose target value
jj Your current insulin sensitivity
jj Your estimated carbohydrate amount for a meal
jj Your current carbohydrate ratio
jj Your current health events
jj Correction insulin that is still acting in the body
jj Your bolus and/or meal history
A meal bolus is the amount of insulin that needs to be delivered
to compensate for the amount of carbohydrates you are planning
to eat. If you are planning to eat several meals or snacks within a
short period of time, you should deliver a meal bolus for each
meal.
The carbohydrate ratio is specified in insulin units (U) per
carbohydrate amount, for example, 1 U : 12 g.
Consider the following information when calculating bolus advice:
jj How you are currently feeling: It may happen that the values
entered when setting up bolus advice do not match how you
are currently feeling. Increase or decrease the suggested bolus
amount according to your current needs.
jj Bolus amounts and meals that were delivered or consumed,
but not entered in the diabetes manager.
jj If you have delivered a bolus without using bolus advice, you
can manually enter the bolus information in the electronic
logbook. It is important that you enter bolus and carbohydrate
information in the logbook in order to obtain accurate bolus
advice recommendations.
18
Calculation:
Meal bolus = carbohydrate amount x carbohydrate ratio
Example
Carbohydrate amount: 63 g
carbohydrate ratio: 1/12
Meal bolus = 63 g x 1/12 = 5.25 U

18.6.2 Correction Bolus
18.6.3 Correction Bolus After a Meal
If your current blood glucose level does not match your blood
glucose target value, a correction bolus is suggested. The
correction bolus calculation is based on your current blood
glucose result and your insulin sensitivity in the current time
block.
After a meal, it is normal for your blood glucose level to increase
even if you delivered the correct meal bolus. The allowed increase
in the blood glucose level is called meal rise. After a certain
period of time, the so-called offset time, the blood glucose level
decreases slowly until it has returned to the target level. The
period of time from the start of the meal rise until your blood
glucose level has returned to its target level, is defined as acting
time.
During this time, a correction bolus is only recommended if the
increase in your blood glucose level exceeds the allowed meal
rise value.
Calculation:
(Current BG - target BG) x insulin sensitivity
Example
Current BG: 8.3 mmol/L
Target BG: 6.1 mmol/L
Insulin sensitivity: 0.033 (calculated from 1 U : 1.7 mmol/L)
Correction bolus = (8.3 mmol/L - 6.1 mmol/L) x 0.033 = 1.3 U

Bolus Calculation
Bolus Advice Graph
The dotted line in the adjacent graph shows how your blood
glucose level might change after a meal bolus. Bolus advice
tolerates an increase in your blood glucose level within the
allowed meal rise range (green). If your blood glucose result is
within the green range, a correction bolus will not be
recommended. If your blood glucose result is above the green
range, a correction bolus will be recommended.
If you enter a carbohydrate amount that is greater than the snack
size, the meal rise is added to the current blood glucose value. If
no current blood glucose value is available, the meal rise is added
to the blood glucose target value. The snack size is a small
amount of carbohydrates (maximum 24 grams). A meal rise will
only be taken into account if the snack size is exceeded. Since
the meal rise is not taken into account when calculating bolus
advice for meals up to the snack size, an increase in the blood
glucose result above the target range is not tolerated after eating
a snack.

Acting time
The period of time from the start of bolus delivery until the point in time when the blood glucose level
is expected to return to the target range.
Active insulin
A calculated value representing the amount of insulin currently in the body that was delivered to
lower the blood glucose level. This value does not include any insulin amounts that were delivered to
compensate for carbohydrate intake.
Alarm clock
Audible or vibrating (silent) notification indicating a reminder.
Automatic off
The automatic off feature stops insulin delivery if you have not touched any keys on the micropump
or not established a Bluetooth wireless connection to the pump for the selected number of hours.
Basal rate
The basal rate is the insulin amount delivered per hour to cover your meal-independent insulin
needs. In insulin pump therapy, your basal rate is determined together with your healthcare team and
can be adjusted to meet your individual physiological needs that can change as the day progresses.
Basal rate profile
The Accu-Chek Solo micropump offers you up to 5 different basal rate profiles in order to easily
adjust insulin delivery to meet your changing insulin needs (for example, during the week compared
to at the weekend). A basal rate profile consists of up to 24 basal rates.
BG threshold
The lower and upper BG thresholds define the target range. The upper BG threshold can be used for
test reminders after a high blood glucose result. The lower BG threshold can be used for test
reminders after a low blood glucose result.
Blood glucose (BG)
The blood glucose level

Bolus advice
When enabled, bolus advice provides the user with suggestions as to how much insulin should be
delivered for a meal and/or to correct the blood glucose level.
Bolus advice options
Factors that influence bolus advice calculation, including meal rise, snack size, acting time and offset
time.
Broteinheit (Bread Equivalent) One of the 4 units for the carbohydrate amount that you can select when setting up the micropump
(BE)
system. 1 BE = 12 grams of carbohydrates
Carbohydrate Choice (CC)
One of the 4 units for the carbohydrate amount that you can select when setting up the micropump

Snack size
A small amount of carbohydrates (maximum 24 g) that is to be compensated for by delivering a
bolus, but for which no significant meal rise is expected. After a snack, a correction bolus is
suggested for each blood glucose value that exceeds the target range or the maximum blood glucose
value currently permitted.
Snooze
Reschedules a reminder or message to reoccur after a preset period of time (for example, after 15
minutes).
Standard bolus
Bolus for which the micropump delivers the insulin as quickly as possible.
Standard deviation (SD)
In this User’s Manual, standard deviation indicates how the blood glucose results are scattered in
relation to the BG average. If the blood glucose results are close to the BG average, the standard
deviation is small.
Start time
The start time of a time block.
Stop mode
When your micropump is in Stop mode, it does not deliver any insulin. Insulin delivery is only stopped
if you switch to Stop mode, change the basal rate profile, make settings using a PC or when certain
error or maintenance messages are issued. Ongoing boluses or Temporary Basal Rates are
interrupted when the micropump switches to Stop mode.
Target range
The upper and lower BG thresholds considered acceptable when fasting or before a meal, as set by
your healthcare professional.
Temporary Basal Rate (TBR)
Temporary increase or decrease in your basal rate profile to match changing insulin needs due to
increased or decreased activity level, illness or stress.
Time block
Time blocks help you to set the target range and parameters for bolus advice for certain times of day.
Up to 8 time blocks can be specified.
