Summary

Counting Carbohydrates (CC) is the preferable method used to calculate the amount of insulin needed for a meal. This method is employed by patients with type 1 diabetes melitus (T1DM). the patients receive the general arithmetic calculation of how much insulin to inject for 15 grams/1 portion of carbohydrate (carb to insulin ratio (C:I) and insulin sensitivity (IS). However, Diabetes Educators are often confronted with difficulties guiding their T1DM patient when using this method and find patients get confused calculating the amount of carbs needed. The investigators sought to create a simple tool that would help our patients implement the CC method easily and properly.
