Basal rate adjustment
Basal rate adjustment involves changing the continuous infusion rate of insulin to better match your body's ongoing needs throughout the day. This ensures a steady level of insulin to manage your blood sugar when you're not eating, between meals, or overnight. Adjusting the basal rate helps maintain stable blood glucose levels, preventing highs or lows, especially if your routine or activity levels change. It’s a common part of diabetes management, allowing for personalized control of insulin to keep blood sugar within a healthy range efficiently.
