Managing meals
Tips for getting good post-meal glucose levels:
Review carbohydrate to insulin (CIR) ratios around 2–4 weeks after starting mylife™ CamAPS® FX and
periodically thereafter.
– If you see the algorithm routinely shutting off insulin delivery directly after the meal, the CIR might be
too strong.
– If the algorithm ramps up to give a lot of insulin directly after the meal, the CIR may be too weak.
Counting carbohydrates and your choice of carbs influence post-meal glucose levels, so aim to be
as accurate as possible when estimating carbs and try to choose lower glycaemic index (GI) foods.
Aim to give mealtime insulin 10–15 minutes before eating.
For people with unpredictable appetites, consider covering the minimum amount of carbs and topping up
with an additional bolus later or the “Add meal” function if required.
If a bolus is late/forgotten, consider giving ± 50 % of the calculated bolus or using the “Boost” function
to help correct the high, as the algorithm will have increased insulin delivery to cover some of the meal
already.
Complex meals:
For large carb meals or where you previously split the bolus (dual / extended wave), consider entering
a maximum of about 60 g via the bolus calculator or the initial (first dose) bolus you usually did
10–15 minutes before the meal and then leaving mylife™ CamAPS® FX to manage the rest over the next
few hours.
– Adjust the carb amount entered via the bolus calculator next time depending on the outcome.
More freedom. More confidence. With mylife™.
For safety reasons, the mylife™ CamAPS® FX bolus calculator will only work if the phone has a security
pin or password locking it when not in use.
If post-meal glucose levels are consistently above target when splitting the dose as above, consider:
1. Giving the insulin for the rest of the carbs via a second bolus (using the bolus calculator) during or at
the end of the meal OR
2. Enter the remaining carbs in the “Add meal” function to inform the algorithm that additional “x” grams
of carbs are being consumed.
– Choose “Meal or snack”. This announces to the system that extra carbs are being eaten.
mylife™ CamAPS® FX will adjust to cover the carbs but only when glucose rises.
3. For slowly absorbed meals – often higher fat,
protein and/or very low GI meals – consider
splitting the bolus, but this time add the remain-
ing (2nd) amount of carbs in the “Add meal”
function AND choosing “Slowly absorbed meal”.
– mylife™ CamAPS® FX will deliver additional
insulin, if required, every 30 minutes
for the next 3–4 hours in response to rising
glucose levels.
– You will see 6 green triangles on diasend®/
Glooko when this feature is used.
