ezBG Examples with the Insulin on Board Feature Activated
If the Insulin on Board feature is activated, your Insulin on Board amount will be displayed for reference
on the ezBG Total screen.
With the feature activated, your suggested ezBG total bolus amount will be as follows:
• If your current BG is above your target range, and your BG correction amount is greater than your
Insulin on Board amount, the suggested total bolus will be your BG correction amount minus your
Insulin on Board amount. This is illustrated in example 1 below.
• In all other situations, your suggested total bolus will be 0.00U.
The following examples illustrate typical screens you may encounter when using the ezBG feature with
Insulin on Board activated. Insulin on Board amounts appear in the "IOB" field.

Example 3
In Examples 2 and 3, the Insulin on Board amount
is displayed for reference but is not applied to
the suggested total bolus amount. In Example 3,
even though your current BG level is above the
target range, there is sufficient Insulin on Board to
cover the high BG. Therefore, no insulin amount
is suggested to cover the high BG. In Example 2,
your BG level is low. Therefore, no insulin amount is
suggested.
