Basal/Bolus
• Basal: glargine, 50% total daily dose
• Bolus: NovoLog or Humalog
– Insulin to carbohydrate ratio
– Correction
BG – target
Correction factor
Basal/Bolus
• I:CHO = 450/total daily insulin dose =
amount of carbs 1 units will cover
• Correction Factor: “1700 rule” =
1700/TDD
• Glargine can not be mixed with any other
insulins
Basal/Bolus
• Glargine dose limited by which blood
sugar?
– 2 AM and breakfast
• Which blood sugar is affected by the
I:CHO ratio?
– 2 hour post-prandial
NPH and Regular
• Advantages
– 2-3 shots per day
– “Easier” – less carb counting and
calculations
• Disadvantages
– Strict dietary plan
– Less flexible
– Less physiologic
Basal/Bolus
• Advantages
– More physiologic
– More flexible
– Less hypoglycemia
• Disadvantages
– More labor-intensive (CHO counting, insulin
calculations)
– At least 4 injections per day
Diet
• Healthy, balanced diet
– 50-60% total calories from carbohydrate
– <30% fat
– 10-20% protein
• Carbohydrate counting
• No forbidden foods - moderation
• Eating too much will not cause ketosis
Exercise
•
•
•
•
Increases sensitivity to insulin
Helps control blood sugar
Lowers cardiovascular risk
Blood sugar usually decreases but may
initially increase
• Hypoglycemia may occur during,
immediately after, or 8-24 hours later
Exercise
• Check blood sugar before, during, after
• Always have snacks available
• May need extra snacks or decreased
insulin (learn from experience)
– Usually 15 gm CHO for every 30 min
vigorous exercise
• Do not exercise if ketones are present
Psychosocial Support
• Every newly diagnosed family should
meet with a psychologist
• Guilt
• Anger
• Fear
• Denial
• Depression

•
•
•
Educate that it may happen

Complications Trial
• Intensive therapy reduced risk by:
–
–
–
–
76% for retinopathy
54% for nephropathy

Hemoglobin A1c
• Reflects blood
glucose over the past

Sick Day Management
• Never omit insulin
• Insulin requirements are often greater
with illness
• Hypoglycemia may be a problem,
especially in younger children
• Test blood sugars every 2-4 hours
• Check urine ketones
Sick Day Management
• Drink plenty of fluids (1 cup per hour)
– Sugar-containing liquids for hypoglycemia
• Need extra insulin to clear ketones
– NPH/R: extra 20% of total dose as R q4
hours
– Basal/bolus: correction dose q3 hours +
additional 20% of calculated correction
• ED for persistent vomiting
