Insulin Pump Settings Calculator
Calculate personalized insulin pump settings including basal rates, insulin-to-carb ratio (ICR), and insulin sensitivity factor (ISF). Get dosing recommendations based on your individual needs.
Step 1: Personal Details
Understanding Insulin Pump Settings
Insulin pump settings are personalized based on weight, total daily insulin, activity level, and individual insulin sensitivity. Always consult with your healthcare provider before changing pump settings.
Step 2: Basal Rate Settings
Basal Rate Time Slots
About Basal Rates
Basal insulin replaces the background insulin your body would naturally produce. Rates often vary throughout the day based on circadian rhythms, activity, and individual insulin sensitivity patterns.

Insulin Calculation Formulas
ICR = 500 / Total Daily Insulin | ISF = 1800 / Total Daily Insulin (mg/dL) | Basal = 40-50% of TDD
These calculations provide starting points for insulin pump settings. Individual responses vary, so careful monitoring and adjustments with your healthcare provider are essential for optimal diabetes management.
