  • Page 175 GLOSSARY Term Definition The insulin sensitivity (U : mmol/L) defines the insulin amount Insulin sensitivity required to lower your glucose level by a certain value. The upper limit value and lower limit value together define the glucose target range. Limit value For bolus calculation, the mean value from the upper limit value and lower limit value is used as the glucose target value.
