Total Daily Dose (TDD) = weight (kg) × sensitivity factor. Basal = 50% of TDD. Bolus per meal = TDD / 6.
常见问题
What sensitivity factor should I use?
Standard: 0.5 units/kg/day. Insulin-sensitive patients: 0.3 units/kg/day. Insulin-resistant patients: 0.7 units/kg/day.
How is the total dose split?
Typically 50% as basal insulin (once or twice daily) and 50% as bolus insulin divided across 3 meals.
