Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate an insulin bolus for use to cover higher fat meals.

Subjects will have several admissions during which the investigators will apply an iterative dose escalation protocol to derive an optimized insulin bolus dose (carbohydrate-to-insulin ratio for fat to minimize postprandial hyperglycemia following higher fat meals. The investigators hypothesize that the incremental insulin dose required to cover dietary fat in patients with type 1 diabetes will be related to total daily insulin dose (U/kg).
