<p>What would your answer be?  Before you give your final answer...consider this next twist.  Would you give the same answer to this graph as you gave the graph above?  If not, what would the answer be for this graph and why? (ignore the timestamp mismatch</br></br></p>

<p>This second case has a dramatic drop happening.  Suspend threshold is still at 60 mg/dL, the correction range is still 90-110, the lowest value on the predicted BG chart is 75 mg/dL, and the eventual BG is 171 mg/dL for this example.  So, pretty similar to the first example except for this precipitous drop going on right now.</p>
<p>Let me tell you some of the common pitfalls we all can easily slip into when trying to answer these "Why is <em>Loop</em> giving me this basal?" questions.</p>
<p>Wondering about <abbr title="Insulin on Board, affects automated insulin delivery: the current active insulin (above or below the basal rate) that Loop calculates and uses for glucose prediction">IOB</abbr>, <abbr title="Carbs on Board, affects automated insulin delivery: the g of carbohydrates that Loop expects to be absorbed and uses for glucose prediction">COB</abbr>, or <abbr title="Duration of Insulin Action, the full time insulin is active including a long, low-level tail">DIA</abbr> in order to answer...those aren't a factor in answering the question as they have already been used to make the predicted BG curve.  In other words, they are accounted for already in the information presented.  All you need to answer this question is provided by the predicted BG curve, your suspend threshold, and your correction range.
