iBolusCalc - Diabetes Blood Glucose Helper 1.14

iBolusCalc is an innovative application designed to assist diabetics in calculating insulin bolus dosages tailored to individual needs. The calculations provided by the app rely on user-defined settings, which are often established in consultation with healthcare professionals such as doctors or diabetes educators. This tool eliminates the need for traditional charts, offering a more efficient and precise method for determining insulin dosages.

Specifically aimed at teenagers, parents of children with type 1 diabetes, and anyone utilizing insulin pens for their management, iBolusCalc streamlines the bolus calculation process. To personalize the experience, users are required to input four critical parameters during the initial setup:

1. Target Blood Glucose: Desired level in mg/dL
2. Exercise Glucose Ratio: Number of blood glucose points in mg/dL expected to change for 30 minutes of exercise
3. Insulin Sensitivity Ratio: Blood glucose level in mg/dL that corresponds to one unit of bolus insulin
4. Carbohydrate to Insulin Ratio: Number of grams of carbohydrates that are balanced by one unit of bolus insulin

Once these settings are configured, the user can begin utilizing iBolusCalc by following a straightforward sequence:

1. The diabetic measures their blood glucose level using a tester.
2. This reading is entered into iBolusCalc.
3. The user then inputs estimated carbohydrate intake and any planned exercise within the next half hour.
4. Finally, by pressing the “CALCULATE” button, iBolusCalc delivers a suggested insulin bolus.

Important Note: The recommended insulin bolus is derived from user-provided data and is not intended to substitute professional calculations for insulin requirements as advised by healthcare providers.
