Voer dit deel van het boluscalculator resultaat uit

  • General setting to deliver only part of bolus wizard result.

  • Only the set percentage (must be between 10 and 100) of the calculated bolus is delivered when using bolus wizard.

  • The percentage is shown in bolus wizard.

Bolusadviseur

  • If you run Bolus wizard and your glucose value is above 10 mmol (180 mg/dl) a correction bolus will be offered.

  • If correction bolus is accepted no carbs will be recorded.

  • An alarm will be started when glucose value is in good level to start eating.

  • You have to enter Bolus wizard again and enter the amount of carbs you want to eat.

    Bolusadviseur bericht

Superbolus

  • Option to enable superbolus in bolus wizard.

  • Superbolus is a concept to “borrow” some insulin from basal rate in the next two hours to prevent spikes.

Behandelingen veiligheid

Patient type

  • Safety limits are set based on the age you select in this setting.

  • If you start hitting these hard limits (like max bolus) it’s time to move one step up.

  • It’s a bad idea to select higher than real age because it can lead to overdosing by entering the wrong value in insulin dialog (by skipping the decimal dot, for example).

  • If you want to know the actual numbers for these hard-coded safety limits, scroll to the algorithm feature you are using on this page.

Max allowed bolus [U]

  • Defines maximum amount of bolus insulin that AAPS is allowed to deliver at once.

  • This setting exists as a safety limit to prevent the delivery of a massive bolus due to accidental input or user error.

  • It is recommended to set this to a sensible amount that corresponds roughly to the maximum amount of bolus insulin that you are ever likely to need for a meal or correction dose.

  • This restriction is also applied to the results of the bolus calculator.

Max allowed carbs [g]

  • Defines the maximum amount of carbs that AAPS bolus calculator is allowed to dose for.

  • This setting exists as a safety limit to prevent the delivery of a massive bolus due to accidental input or user error.

  • It is recommended to set this to a sensible amount that corresponds roughly to the maximum amount of carbs that you are ever likely to need for a meal.

Loop

APS Mode

  • Toggle between open and closed looping as well as low glucose suspend (LGS)

  • Open looping means TBR suggestions are made based on your data and appear as a notification. After manual confirmation, the command to dose insulin will be transferred to pump.

  • Closed looping means TBR suggestions are automatically sent to your pump without confirmation or input from you.

  • Low glucose suspend is similar to closed looping, but overrides the maxIOB setting to zero. This means that if blood glucose is dropping it can reduce the basal rate, but if blood glucose is rising then it will only increase the basal rate if the basal IOB is negative (e.g. from a previous Low Glucose Suspend).

Minimal request change [%]

  • When using open loop you will receive notifications every time AAPS recommends to adjust basal rate.

  • To reduce number of notifications you can either use a wider BG target range or increase percentage of the minimal request rate.

  • This defines the relative change required to trigger a notification.

Advanced Meal Assist (AMA) of Super Micro Bolus (SMB)

Depending on your settings in config builder you can choose between two algorithms:

OpenAPS AMA instellingen

  • Allows the system to high-temp more quickly after a meal bolus IF you enter carbs reliably.

  • More details about the settings and Autosens can be found in the OpenAPS docs.

Maximaal instelbaar basaal E/u

  • Exists as a safety limit to prevent AAPS from ever being capable of giving a dangerously high basal rate.

  • The value is measured in units per hour (U/h).

  • We raden je aan je verstand te gebruiken bij het invullen van deze waarde. A good recommendation is to take the highest basal rate in your profile and multiply it by 4.

  • For example, if the highest basal rate in your profile was 0.5 U/h you could multiply that by 4 to get a value of 2 U/h.

  • See also detailed feature description.

Maximum basal IOB OpenAPS can deliver [U]

  • Amount of additional basal insulin (in units) allowed to accumulate in your body, on top of your normal basal profile.

  • Once this value is reached, AAPS will stop giving additional basal insulin until your basal Insulin on Board (IOB) has decayed to within this range again.

  • This value does not consider bolus IOB, only basal.

  • This value is calculated and monitored independently of your normal basal rate. Alleen de extra basale insuline die werd afgegeven bovenop je normale basaalstand, wordt meenomen.

When you begin looping, it is advised to set Max Basal IOB to 0 for a period of time, while you are getting used to the system. Dit zorgt ervoor dat AAPS helemaal geen extra basale insuline kan geven. Terwijl AAPS wel je basale insuline naar beneden kan bijstellen, of zelfs helemaal uitschakelen om een hypo te helpen voorkomen. Dit is een belangrijke stap omdat:

  • Have a period of time to safely get used to the AAPS system and monitor how it works.

  • Take the opportunity to perfect your basal profile and Insulin Sensitivity Factor (ISF).

  • See how AAPS limits your basal insulin to prevent hypoglycaemia.

Pas na een tijd mag je het systeem toestaan om extra basale insuline te geven door de Max Basal IOB waarde te verhogen. The recommended guideline for this is to take the highest basal rate in your profile and multiply it by 3. Als de hoogste basaalstand in je profiel bijvoorbeeld 0,5 E/uur is, dan moet je dat vermenigvuldigen met 3 om een waarde van 1.5 E/uur te krijgen.

  • You can start conservatively with this value and increase it slowly over time.

  • These are guidelines only; everyone’s body is different. Je kunt onderweg merken dat jij zelf minder of meer nodig hebt dan wat hier wordt aanbevolen, begin altijd voorzichtig en pas langzaam aan.

Note: As a safety feature, Max Basal IOB is hard-limited to 7u.

Gevoeligheidsdetectie (Autosens)

  • Autosens looks at blood glucose deviations (positive/negative/neutral).

  • It will try and figure out how sensitive/resistant you are based on these deviations and adjust basal rate and ISF based on these deviations.

  • If you select “Autosens adjust target, too” the algorithm will also modify your glucose target.

Geavanceerde instellingen (OpenAPS AMA)

  • Normally you do not have to change the settings in this dialogue!

  • If you want to change them anyway make sure to read about details in OpenAPS docs and to understand what you are doing.

OpenAPS SMB instellingen

  • In contrast to AMA, SMB does not use temporary basal rates to control glucose levels, but mainly small super micro boluses.

  • You must have started objective 9 to use SMB.

  • The first three settings are explained above.

  • Details on the different enable options are described in OpenAPS feature section.

  • How frequently SMBs will be given in min is a restriction for SMB to be delivered only every 4 min by default. Deze waarde voorkomt dat het systeem te vaak SMB afgeeft (bijvoorbeeld in geval van een tijdelijk streefdoel). Wijzig deze instelling alleen als je precies weet wat de gevolgen zijn.

  • If ‘Sensitivity raises target’ or ‘Resistance lowers target’ is enabled Autosens will modify your glucose target according to your blood glucose deviations.

  • If target is modified it will be displayed with a green background on your home screen.

Waarschuwing ‘koolhydraten nodig’

  • This feature is only available if SMB algorithm is selected.

  • Eating of additional carbs will be suggested when the reference design detects that it requires carbs.

  • In this case you will receive a notification which can be snoozed for 5, 15 or 30 minutes.

  • Additionally the required carbs will be displayed in the COB section on your home screen.

  • A threshold can be defined - minimum amount of carbs needed to trigger a notification.

  • Carb required notifications can be pushed to Nightscout if wished, in which case an announcement will be shown and broadcast.

Opname instellingen

Opname instellingen

min_5m_carbimpact

  • The algorithm uses BGI (blood glucose impact) to determine when carbs are absorbed.

  • The value is only used during gaps in CGM readings or when physical activity “uses up” all the blood glucose rise that would otherwise cause AAPS to decay COB.

  • At times when carb absorption can’t be dynamically worked out based on your blood’s reactions it inserts a default decay to your carbs. Het is in feite een vangnet.

  • To put it simply: The algorithm “knows” how your BGs should behave when affected by the current dose of insulin etc.

  • Whenever there is a positive deviation from the expected behaviour, some carbs are absorbed/decayed. Hierbij geldt: grote verandering = veel koolhydraten.

  • The min_5m_carbimpact does define the default carb absorption impact per 5 minutes. For more details see OpenAPS docs.

  • Standard value for AMA is 5, for SMB it’s 8.

  • The COB graph on the home screen indicates when min_5m_impact is being used by putting an orange circle at the top.

Maximale maaltijd absorptie tijd

  • If you often eat high fat or protein meals you will need to increase your meal absorption time.

Geavanceerde instellingen - autosens ratio

  • Define min. and max. autosens ratio.

  • Normally standard values (max. 1.2 and min. 0.7) should not be changed.
