CHAPTER 29 • Introduction to Control-IQ Technology
Increasing Insulin Delivery
When Control-IQ technology predicts
that your sensor glucose value will be
above the upper limit of the targeted
range 30 minutes in the future, the rate
of insulin delivered will begin to increase
to attempt to keep the actual CGM
values within the target CGM range.
The following diagrams depict when
Control-IQ technology might be
increasing and delivering at the
maximum increased basal rate.
Maximum Insulin Delivery
When Control-IQ technology predicts
that your sensor glucose value will be
above the upper limit of the target
range 30 minutes in the future, but the
maximum rate of insulin delivery has
been reached, Control-IQ technology
stops increasing the insulin delivery
rate. The maximum insulin delivery rate
is a calculated value that is dependent
on an individual's Correction Factor
setting (found in the active Personal
Profile), the Total Daily Insulin estimated
by Control-IQ technology based on
actual total daily insulin values, and the
current insulin on board (IOB).
