New cards

T/F Higher dose is required for T2 than T1

True

2
New cards

T/F Doses are adjusted based on HbA1C

False (based on blood glucose)

3
New cards

T/F Minimum dose is the dose which effectively lowers glucose

False (maximum dose)

4
New cards

What pt would be the best candidate for premixed insulin therapy?

difficulty managing multiple daily injections and consistent meal patterns

5
New cards

Equation for determining total daily insulin dose

0.5 units/kg/day

6
New cards

How would you split the total daily insulin dose between bolus and basal insulin?

Basal: 40% Bolus: 20% (TID)

7
New cards

How would you split the total daily insulin dose for a mixed insulin?

2/3 before breakfast, 1/3 before dinner

8
New cards

Equation for ICR

500/total daily insulin

9
New cards

What does ICR mean?

Insulin to CHO ratio

10
New cards

What does ISF mean?

Insulin Sensitivity Factor

11
New cards

What is the ISF equation for rapid-acting insulin?

1800/total daily insulin

12
New cards

What is the ISF equation for short-acting insulin?

1500/total daily insulin

13
New cards

ICR vs ISF?

ICR: bolus insulin, determines how many g of CHO are covered by 1 unit of rapid-acting insulin ISF: used in correction dose when BG are too high or low before meals
