[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 1514953, member: 11028"] A bolus dose is the insulin you take with food, meters like the Aviva Expert have a built-in bolus adviser that calculates how much insulin (bolus dose) to take when you input the carb intake of the meal, it also takes into account the current bg level and advises accordingly. The data for the bolus adviser to work needs to be manually imputed, the DSN usually do this for the patient and the data can be updated at any given time, so if say your boys insulin-to-carb ratio's changes you can (after been shown how to by the DSN) adjust this in the settings. Here's a link to the Accu-Chek website, be sure to view the video which explains all: [URL]https://www.accu-chek.co.uk/help/blood-glucose-meters/aviva-expert[/URL] [/QUOTE]
