Optimizing the combination insulin bolus split for a high-fat, high-protein meal in children and adolescents using insulin pump therapy.

High-fat and high-protein meals require a ≥60% insulin:carbohydrate ratio as a standard bolus to control the initial postprandial rise. Additional insulin at an insulin:carbohydrate ratio of up to 70% is needed in the extended bolus for a high fat and protein meal to prevent delayed hyperglycaemia.
