SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR THE DETERMINATION OF INSULIN SENSITIVITY

A subject is prescribed short and long acting insulin medicament regimens. When a qualified fasting event occurs, the basal insulin sensitivity estimate of the subject is updated using (i) an expected fasting blood glucose level based upon the long acting insulin medicament dosing specified by the long acting regimen during the fasting event, (ii) glucose measurements contemporaneous with the fasting event and (iii) a prior insulin sensitivity factor. A basal insulin sensitivity factor curve is calculated from the updated basal insulin sensitivity estimate. A bolus insulin sensitivity estimate of the subject is updated upon occurrence of a correction bolus with a short acting insulin medicament using (i) an expected blood glucose level based upon the correction bolus, (ii) glucose measurements after occurrence of the correction bolus, and (iii) a prior insulin sensitivity factor. A bolus insulin sensitivity factor curve is calculated from the updated bolus insulin sensitivity estimate.
