App developments

Hi Simon, Marke and All,

Love the iPhone App and Prof Pearson at ARI Woolmanhill is impressed with the style (if not my readings!)

Looking at the latest Balance I see on the back page an ad for a meter which claims to have a function to calculate how much insulin is left in ones body. Seems a pretty useful tool to have.

Any ideas about incorporating this and suggesting a correction dose?

Cheers Richard

Is that the freestyle insulin X?

I know there is an accu check meter, that goes with its pump, that also has a bolus calculator.........

My insulinX gives you a dose taking into account 'active insulin' and corrections........

But the problem I have with it, is it doesn't offer different correction factors at different levels of blood sugar, only at different times, so not totally perfect for all.....

With this is mind, I dont know if giving this feature on the app would be good, as it may not work for all and may open up problems for the developers as they cant/shouldn't be taking responsibility for peoples dose calculations.....

But, you never know.....

Rapidcalc (iphone app) does something similar although it doesnt take into account DAFNE principles.
