Apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere but does anybody know of an app/program available for smartphones - I used an iPhone - which will calculate bolus values for a given amount of CHO and BG value, (maybe taking into account active insulin too)? Needless to say, I am using an insulin pump and although it can do this for me already, it is not so convenient when I have the pump wedged into my sock rather than clipped to a belt |

Alan, There are issues in writing an app based bolus calculator as NICE consider the result to be a medical device which then needs to go through their safety approval process. See the following thread for the impact on the dafenonline mobile app: http://www.dafneonline.co.uk/forums/1/topics/2769. |

If you need to actually get the pump in hand to confirm the bolus delivery does that not eliminate the need for another bolus calculator? |
